Sound Spy Sheets

Here’s a fun, research-backed way to build blending and phonemic awareness skills while keeping students actively engaged. You can use this one activity in multiple ways to target key foundational skills:
- Isolate, segment, and blend sounds: Students can identify beginning sounds (Find a picture that starts with /m/), segment words like dog into individual phonemes, or blend sounds like /p/ /o/ /t/ to match and cover the correct picture. This helps strengthen the connection between sounds and words.
- Manipulate sounds within words: Students can practice rhyming, substitute sounds (pot → hot), or delete sounds (spin → pin).Â
- Strengthen phonemic awareness through comparison and sorting: Have students categorize words by sound patterns or identify which word doesn’t belong.
