Developing a Treasure Hunt

 

   A treasure hunt is an Internet based activity that takes a hotlist to the next level of learning. After developing a hotlist you pose one key question for each Web site you have linked to. The purpose is to have your students develop specific knowledge on the subject.
   
Download this handout to organize the sites then search and evaluate web sites that will enhance your curriculum. You may want to start by visiting teacher resource sites and kid safe search engines.
