I would never think to explore the world through a scavenger hunt. However, this activity was great and kept me interested in what I was learning. I never would have thought of most of these questions myself, nor do I really think about these answers. I buy my clothes and shoes and never think about where they come from to begin with. I enjoyed all the questions that made us think about where our everyday items come from. I know that most of my families vehicles are made in the United States, but there are a lot of ones that are not made here.
This assignment was a lot of fun and something that I hope to do for my future students. It made the learning a lot of fun.
I think a scavenger hunt is such a great activity to be utilized in Social Studies. Although, I did feel the pressure of getting it done and having it all be correct. I think it would be a fun cooperative lesson where the students can work together on the hunt. Definitely something I will take from this class into my future. Who doesn't love a scavenger hunt? =) -Kerry
