I Spy games have always been one of my go-to strategies to fill in time and engage students to build vocabulary and facilitate language skills. I pull it out while we are waiting for the previous specials class to finish up. Or when we have some extra time at the end of a center before rotating that I was expecting. Over the years I've used them with all different types of students and for building all types of skills. But I particularly like them for building expressive and receptive vocabulary skills.
