This Human Body Systems reading informational text scavenger hunt lesson is an engaging cross-curricular activity that incorporates reading comprehension, informational text, citing text evidence and critical thinking skills. This fun front-loading lesson includes 10 short reading passages and a final mystery word that students must unscramble. Each card reveals a new code word. The correct code words are not only found on a different card but also must be found IN the reading passage.

☀️_Check out preview for details!_

Topics Include:

► Circulatory System

► Excretory System

► Digestive System

► Respiratory System

► Muscular System

► Skeletal System

► Nervous System

► Immune System

► Endocrine System

► Integumentary System

With This Product You'll Get:

⭐ 10 reading passages

⭐ 10 Question Trails

⭐ Student Recording Sheet

⭐ Student Directions

⭐ Teacher Directions

⭐ Teacher Answer Key

This fun front-loading lesson includes 10 short reading passages and a final mystery word that students must unscramble. Each card reveals a new code word. The correct code words are not only found on a different card but also must be found IN the reading passage.

⚠️ CAUTION: Should you choose to use the activity as a review activity, the questions would be too easy and the completion time would be too quick. Therefore, I highly encourage this activity to introduce a new unit.

How does it work?

Students choose a reading card to start at and may start at ANY card. They read the passage and look at the question at the bottom labeled “code word”. The code word for THAT card number will lead them to a different card. But here’s the catch… students will NOT know where to find the answer so they will have to visit, skim, browse and revisit the clue cards and reading passages several times to find the answer they are seeking. (The more times they read or skim, the greater the chances of the info sinking in!)

Is it still a scavenger hunt?

It sure is! Students are roaming around the room hunting for answers. With large groups it’s often too hard to hide clues without the first group giving away the location once a clue has been found. This format ensures that ALL students can participate, and the “answers” will not be revealed by students who “finish” first.

You can hang the cards on the wall, scatter them on the floor, place them on desks, hide them or use as stations. How you choose to set it up in your classroom is up to you.

Students can work in pairs (or individually) and race to complete 10 questions, secret word and secret code. A friendly competition always increases engagement.

PROCEEDS FROM THIS PRODUCT WILL BE DONATED TO UNICEF UKRAINE!

Like many of you, the country of Ukraine and its people have been on my mind and heart daily. Saddened by what is taking place and feeling helpless I wished there was more I could do to help. Undoubtedly, you are also thinking about your students during time and looking for ways to address this current event with them in an age appropriate way.

This scavenger hunt is a fun way for students to learn fun and interesting facts about Ukraine while bringing attention to the country & culture. Students can work together to complete the scavenger hunt bringing unity to the classroom. Activity pages at the end give students the opportunity to reflect and even express their emotions.

This resource does not directly address the current climate or war in Ukraine. This resource was designed to teach about the beauty of Ukraine and its rich culture. I have found many students have been flooded with information and images of the war from different media source. This gives students insight to what Ukraine was like before the war.

Donation Details:

I have priced this resource at $5.00 and will donate 100% of the proceeds to UNICEF Ukraine. UNICEF is working in Ukraine to provide necessary resources, support and assistance to children and their families.

Follow along on Instagram where I will be posting the donations to see how much we can donate together!

This resource includes:

• 20 Ukraine scavenger hunt fact cards

Level 1 – Multiple Choice

- 2 answer sheets with 10 questions each

- 1 follow up worksheet with 10 questions

Level 2 – Write in the Answer

- 2 answer sheets with 10 questions each

- 1 follow up worksheet with 10 questions

• 3 different Ukraine flag activity pages
• 1 Ukraine map activity
• Total of 10 worksheets and 60 questions
• Teacher guide
• Teacher answer key

With this interactive scavenger hunt students will learn fun and interesting facts about Ukraine. For example: Did you know Ukraine used to be apart of another country? Or that Ukraine is about the same size as Texas? The scavenger hunt includes 20 fact cards and asks students to read the cards closely for information to fill in the answer

This scavenger hunt will still work broken into shorter segments for multiple lessons or a shorter activity.

This scavenger hunt also works well as a scoot game!
