Orthographic Mapping Assignment
Orthographic mapping includes connecting letters to letter sounds to support reading by visually seeing the letters and words. Through this mapping process, a connection is made between the correct spelling sequences and the words we know. The phoneme-grapheme relationships are the foundational building blocks of the orthographic code. Orthographic mapping is the process that all successful readers use to become fluent.
