Constellation Scavenger Hunt 5-7
By Mark Holmes
Constellation Scavenger Hunt
Hi fellow teachers
I often do scavenger hunts in grade 4 to 7 classrooms. I find them particularly useful when I’m feeling tired or lacking energy (hey, we’ve all been there).
Why do I like them?
It can look chaotic, but if observed you can see students really trying, really reading the information, and really collaborating and cooperating.
How it works:

I have used this activity in a Grade 6 class.
The whole activity takes about 40 minutes and I might suggest watching a couple of Youtube videos on the topic to ‘get them in the mood.
Good luck!
