Virtual Scavenger Hunt

NAME

Virtual Scavenger Hunt

WHO

Any online meeting (works best if everyone is online and in their home)

DURATION

• 5-7 minutes “searching”
• 3-5 minutes “sharing”

DIRECTIONS

You will have 5-7 minutes to scavenge your home/apartment/backpack/internet to display one item or image for each of the 4 categories. Find....

• Something you love
• Something you hate
• Something that reminds you of home (could be your home now, or where you were born/raised)
• Something new

Once you have called the participants back to the meeting, invite participants to share their items. If it’s a small group, each person can take a turn. If it’s larger, ask for volunteers to raise their hand.

ADAPTATIONS/TIPS

• If someone is not in their residence, feel free to make this a “Google” experience. Invite the participant to search online for images of each of these categories.
• If the lesson is focused on a certain topic (like food or culture), invite participants to find items pertaining to the unit’s theme.
