Scavenger Hunt at FMS

I made a scavenger hunt (orienteering) to keep the students motivated and refreshed during the OAT week. The 'hunt' includes ten controls, and have easy, but fun, questions on them for the students to answer. Each team receives a control punch / answer card that they carry with them. It includes a description of the location of each control should they need it. The entire event seems to average about 20 minutes for the student teams (2-4 per team seems to work well).

The loop goes around the high school, and I used orange paper when I printed the controls. They are laminated, and I found that if one tapes one corner with duct tape, then punches a hole, then attach the control using a zip tie, things work really well!

All the kids so far have enjoyed the orienteering event, and I plan on using the same format in the future, but with review questions, quiz questions, etc.
