Math Scavenger Hunts: A Fun Way to Get Kids Moving



Hi Manoj,

Today I want to share a new article from my friend Paige, who share exactly what task card scavenger hunts are & how to use them in the classroom.

This is one of my favorite ways to get kids up and moving, and I even use them with my own kids as we homeschool, so it's not just for the classroom!

Read about the benefits & how to set it up in the article below, and be sure to grab a free scavenger hunt to try out with your students!

Math in Nature: A Virtual Scavenger Hunt

This is a different kind of scavenger hunt, but a great way to expand students' knowledge by seeing math in the world around them. Completed online, students 'search' links to learn about various ways we see math in nature.
