I Spy With My Little Eye

Say "I spy" and a first sound, find the picture, then write its first letter. A free beginning sounds I spy game for two players. Part of our i spy activity packets collection.

How do I use this resource?

Model one turn with the class first, stressing that players say the sound, not the letter name. Pair a stronger reader with a beginner so the clues stay clear. Use a dry-erase marker on a laminated copy so pairs can play again with roles swapped. At home, parents can play first, then let the child give the clues. Extend the game by asking for another word that starts with the same sound.
