Going On A Scavenger Hunt (without leaving your computer's side)



Most people think of scavenger hunts as running around with a map to multiple locations in order to find whatever it is you're searching for. Take that concept and apply it to using the world wide web and voila, you have a wonderful activity for your classroom!

It's quite simple. Either you can make up your own where students go hunting through the web to find answers on multiple websites or find one that's already been created that fits your lesson. Kids seem to love it and it's a great way to not only reinforce the lesson being taught but to also reinforce the importance and valuable use of utilizing technology in the classroom to enhance a lesson!

So get out there and look up a few on the web that have already been created. And then brave the web and create your own (if you are adventurous enough)!
