SOLAR SYSTEM QR CODE SCAVENGER HUNT

In search of fun Solar System activities? Engage your students with this fun Solar System QR Code Scavenger Hunt!

Page 3: Materials, Preparation, Activity and Management Tips

Materials:

Solar System questions worksheet

15 QR Code cards

Tape and scissors

Preparation:

Print the 15 Solar System QR Code cards on card stock. Make copies of the QR Code Cards questions worksheet (2-sided). Each student will need his or her own copy. Tape the 15 QR Code cards around your classroom where students will be able to find them and scan the QR code with their iPads or tablets. You can put the QR Code cards on the back of your classroom door, on the student desks, on the chalkboard, or wherever you like.

Activity:

Students receive a copy of the Solar System question worksheet. They have to go around the room with their iPads or tablets and scan all the QR Code cards to answer the questions. After they have completed the question sheet, you can go over the answers together with the class.

Management tips:

You may want to make this a silent activity so students don't share answers with each other. You can have the kids work alone or with a classmate. Don't be afraid to hide the Solar System QR Code cards in tough places. Students think it's more fun when they have to search around a little.

Have a plan for early finishers. You may want to have a task for them to complete when they're done, or you may have them help other students find the answers to the Solar System questions.

Pages 4-5: Solar System Questions Worksheet

Pages 6-20: QR Code Cards (The cards cover questions on the history, fun facts and celebrations of Solar System.)

Pages 21-36: Answer Key (This is made up of the slides with the questions and answers that students will see when they scan the Solar System QR Codes. The slides were saved as png files and stored in my Google Drive. These slides were included to make it easier for the teacher to go over the questions and answers with the class.)
