This engaging Classroom I Spy activity encourages children to explore their learning environment while developing observation, speaking and reading skills. Using a laminated magnifying glass overlay, pupils search the classroom to find and identify familiar objects from the list, ticking each item as they discover it. The activity helps children become more confident with classroom vocabulary, promotes independence, and supports visual discrimination and attention to detail in a fun, hands-on way. It can be used as a settling task, classroom orientation activity, literacy centre challenge or partner game.

5 variations included using trickier vocab.
