Rationing Scavenger Hunt

This engaging and interactive lesson encourages children to read for information and take notes about different aspects of rationing in Britain during WW2.

There are 16 mini fact cards which share information about rationing, ration books, the Dig for Victory campaign, victory gardens, propaganda and wartime recipes. There is also a note taking page for the children to record the facts in their own words.

This resource can be used as a scavenger hunt style activity outdoors (or indoors!) for children to hunt, find and gather information, or as a group reading activity in class.

Tip: Stick the fact cards on to the back of the mini propaganda posters and encourage the children to use the posters as a primary source of information!
