Phonics- initial sound hunt camera

Turn phonics practice into an exciting exploration activity with this fun Alphabet Camera! Children can look through the camera lens and search their environment for objects, pictures or classroom items. Once they spot something, they identify the initial sound they can hear at the beginning of the word.

For example, if a child spots a table, they would identify the initial sound /t/. If they see a pen, they would identify the sound /p/.
