Section 4: For the teacher

Timing:
  • Allot 15 minutes for the active scavenger hunt. Play some upbeat, low-volume background music to keep the energy high but focused.
Early Finishers:
  • If a student finishes before the timer is up, have them flip their paper over and write one "fun fact" they learned about a classmate that wasn't on the list.
Debrief Questions:
  1. What was the most surprising thing you learned about a classmate today?
  1. Did anyone find someone who has a similar interest or hobby to you? What was it?
  1. Why is it important to talk to people we don't know well yet as we start middle school?
