How to Play the Long Vowel 'E' I Spy Game:

  2. Set it up: Choose one long Vowel 'E' 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 Long Vowel 'E' I Spy Game:



Independent Play: Give one student an I Spy game board and the full stack of word cards. They flip each long vowel 'E' word card, find the image, and cover it with a mini eraser or token. This builds visual focus and word recognition independently.

Parallel Play: Two players use separate I Spy game boards and take turns flipping and matching their own words 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.
