This is an "I SPY" picture hunt activity. This can be used as individual or small group instruction to support the reading of CVC words (consonant-vowel-consonant) e.g., cat, run, pan. This activity also helps support the learning of the reading decoding strategy of "blending".

In this activity, the child reads a word on the list on their clipboard. Then they try and find the matching picture that has been posted on the wall in the classroom. The student can also find the picture first and then match it to the word on their clipboard.

This file includes instructions, word list activity sheet and picture cards for the activity.
