SCAVENGER HUNT GAME

Sometime I allow my students to complete activities that allow them to move around the classroom. Sometimes whenever a unit is completed I give them the opportunity play a game.
An activity sheet is done while playing a scavenger hunt game. Posters are placed all around the classroom, and each student worked with a partner (preferably a stronger student) to solve the problems on each poster. Each paper is folded with a letter written on the front. The letter on the paper will be recorded at number 1 on their activity sheet, and then they solve the problem under the flap of the paper. After solving that problem, the answer will be recorded, after which both students then moved around the room and looked for the answer at the bottom of the other posters in the room. When the answer is found, they record the letter on that poster at number 2 on their activity sheet, and then solved the problem. This is repeated until all the problems around the room are solved. Each group is randomly called to solve their problems on the chalkboard.
