"I Spy" for fun and for pre-reading skills

"I Spy" is an old but fun game!'

Here's a sheet of "I Spy" pictures that can be used to entertain children at home, and to sharpen reading skills such as:

  • visual discrimination
  • knowledge of letter names
  • awareness of letter sounds 
  • awareness of sounds in words.




For younger children, it's good to use sounds rather than letter names, e.g. "I spy something beginning with 'th'..." for thumb.

Here are some ideas for variations of the game:  "I Spy" variations

I'll post some more picture sheets, and other ideas for using them, soon.
