Florida Scavenger Hunt

 FLORIDA: The Sunshine State                                  

 

      Ready… Set… Hunt!

 

This year students in my class will take part in a Florida Scavenger Hunt! Collected items are to be proudly displayed in a scrapbook, which will be due towards the end of the year. The goal is to collect as many items as possible for the scrapbook. Each item has a designated point value and it is possible to earn up to 200 points! Some of these items are easy to find. Others may require a little extra effort. Scrapbook creativity is very important and can add up to 12 points alone.
