  • Attention and Focus – Racing to be the first to find a match keeps kids sharp and engaged.
  • Matching and Categorization – Kids strengthen foundational skills by comparing cards to visual scenes.


Secondary Skills (SEL + Life Skills):


  • Turn-Taking and Social Interaction Great for building patience, cooperation, and positive peer relationships during small group games.
  • Communication and Expressive Language Encourage children to name, describe, and use the pictured words in sentences to practice oral language.
  • Focus and Attention High-interest gameplay keeps students alert and engaged as they race to find their picture.



The Dentist I Spy Board Games are Perfect For:


  • Literacy or math center warm-ups – Use the game to kick off your small group time with a high-energy activity that gets kids thinking and engaged before diving into lessons.
  • RTI or small group work – Great for targeted practice! The visual discrimination and vocabulary connection make it ideal for intervention groups needing focused support.
  • Early finishers or rainy day fun – Keep those fast finishers busy (and happy!) with a meaningful game that reinforces skills without feeling like extra work.
  • Homeschool learning – Easy to prep and reuse, it adds hands-on play to your homeschool routine while supporting visual perception, attention, and vocabulary.
  • ELL students – The visual clues and image-to-word matching are perfect for supporting English Language Learners as they build vocabulary and connect words to real-world objects.



How to Play the Dentist Themed I Spy Game:


  1. Prep your materials: Print the dentist themed word image cards, I Spy game boards, and token cards. Laminate for long-term use and cut the pieces.
  2. Set it up: Choose one dentist themed I Spy game board and place it in the center. Deal image cards to each player.
  3. Flip and find: All players flip one word card at a time and race to find the matching image on the board.
  4. Win a token: The first player to spot the correct image wins a token!
  5. Repeat and play again: Keep flipping and matching until all cards are used. The player with the most tokens wins!



Additional Ways to Use the Dentist Themed Community Helpers I Spy Game:



Independent Play: Give one student an I Spy game board and the full stack of dental themed picture cards. They flip each picture card, find the image, and cover it with a mini eraser or token. This builds visual focus and vocabulary building independently.


Parallel Play: Two players use separate I Spy game boards and take turns flipping and matching their own dentist themed picture cards at their own pace. Great for learners who need personal space or are just beginning to engage in group activities.


These options make the game even more flexible... perfect for classroom differentiation, therapy settings, or adapting to students’ emotional and developmental needs.
