HERE’S HOW THE END OF YEAR MATH SCAVENGER HUNTS WORK

You may choose to have students work independently or with a partner, promoting math talk and discussion.

Post the problems around the room or on student desks.
Give pairs of students or individual students the recording sheet. They will also need something like a clipboard to write on and a pencil.
Have students all go to a different problem page. Although problems are numbered, there is not an order. It is circular.)
Students read the problem and find an answer.
Next, they scan the other posted problems to find their answer in the upper right-hand box that says, “The Answer To YOUR Problem Is…”.
Students move to that problem, find the answer, and repeat the process until they have completed all of the end-of-year scavenger hunt math problems.

SELF-CHECKING 👏🏼

What’s more, the scavenger hunt is self-checking, allowing students to identify and correct errors on their own. With no need for you to spend valuable teacher-time checking student answers, you can sit back and enjoy the learning and fun.
