These printable scavenger hunt games will engage your pupils in an active learning experience! Using reading passages, questions and code words, your students will move around the room, solving clues to complete the task. This bundle contains all three scavenger hunts! Each focuses on a basic, fundamental music topic and they require no prior knowledge so you can use them with any class! The Musical Laboratory is about the elements of music - melody, rhythm, timbre etc. The Broken Time Machine focuses on musical periods - Baroque, Classical etc. Concert Hall Break In introduces orchestral instruments. Each scavenger hunt includes a fun storyline to introduce the lesson. Students work alone or in groups, reading 10 passages of information as they search for the clues to solve the mystery word and code required to finish the scavenger hunt. They will love the friendly competition of trying to be the first to complete the mystery! If you are looking for a unique way to introduce these crucial musical topics while encouraging movement and problem solving skills, this bundle is perfect for you. You can hang the cards on the wall, hide them, scatter them on the floor: How you choose to set it up in your classroom is up to you. Students revisit each card text multiple times, practicing reading comprehension and critical thinking skills as they rotate around the room seeking text evidence. To ensure understanding of the subject matter, students will answer questions that can be found directly in the reading passages. WHAT I LOVE: These activities is ready to print and go - set up time is minimal. No prior knowledge is required so it can be an exciting way to introduce each topic. Spread them out through the year - your students will start asking for more! It can even be used with a sub! No technology, instruments or specialist knowledge is needed. WHAT’S INCLUDED?
