✨Directions:
Scatter cards around the classroom or tape them on the walls. Pair students up or put them in small groups. Students start with any card. Assign each group of students to a card. For a more stationary scavenger hunt, students can sit at their tables/desks and sort through them in groups.
For the first card, students will read the code word (the passage will be irrelevant to the code word question). The answer for the code word is found in another card and the cards DO NOT go in order.
Students will then find the answers to the code word question they read by searching through and reading other passages until they find the correct word.
Once they’ve found the answer, they write it on the answer sheet and move on to the next question.
When all code words have been found and written on the answer sheet, students will unscramble the mystery word that answers the riddle.
For extra fun, make it a competition and give out prizes!
