These Short a CVC Word Family Phonics Mat are a fun and interactive way for students to practice short a word families. Students can use Google Slides or PowerPoint to access the work mats. You also gain access to the paper/printable version of these phonics mats!
Digital Version
There are a total of 12 work slides, with 5 tasks for students to complete per slide. Tasks included in each Short a CVC Word Family Phonics Mat:
Students will point and read each word three times. The touch dots are included to help with one to one correspondence.
Students will drag and drop to match the picture with the word.
Students will look at the picture, say the word, and type the word in the text box. To make this a more meaningful practice, students should say each sound of the word to emphasize the beginning, middle, and ending sounds and their letter associations.
Students will read the short story passage.
Students will drag and drop a star on each word that matches the focused word family spelling pattern.
Paper/Printable Version
There are a total of 36 pages. Students will cut out pictures and glue to match them with the words. There are 3 options for how students write in the cvc word. The first set of twelve pages have a blank line for students to write the whole short a cvc word. The next set of twelve pages have the short a cvc filled in and students must trace the focused word family spelling pattern. The last set of twelve pages have students trace the whole short a cvc word. Students read the short story passages and circle, or highlight, the short a cvc words.
Word families included in this set: -ab, -ad, -ag, -am, -an, -ap, -at
