Word Sudoku Puzzles, Short I Words, Kids Ages 6-9

Word sudoku puzzles get a phonics twist in this hands-on center activity designed for kindergarten and first grade learners. Students use picture word cards to build and solve sudoku-style grids, all while practicing short I word recognition in a format that feels like a game rather than a worksheet.

Two differentiated levels make it easy to meet every learner right where they are, and the self-paced puzzle format builds deductive reasoning and logical thinking alongside core literacy skills. It is low prep, highly engaging, and works beautifully as a literacy center, early finisher activity, partner work, or a reliable sub day option.
