Word Mapping NO PREP Centers – BOSSY R

I wanted to make it easy for you to work on these skills but also provide some independence for your students/child! Did you know that it can take between 5-500 repetitions to memorize a word? And research shows that our brains do not store words visually! When you match sounds to symbols (aka letters/graphemes) you are promoting a process in the child’s brain called orthographic mapping. Research shows this is how our brains store words. Not to mention, it usually only takes between 1-4 repetitions of mapping a word before that word is permanently stored in what is called our orthographic lexicon!
