Let's Go on a Constitution Day Scavenger Hunt

$3.95

Send your students on a fun scavenger hunt to learn about the United States Constitution and Constitution Day!

This mini-unit includes 6 short passages with real-life photos to post around the classroom. Using the two organizers and a clip board students act as detectives to track down the answers to the questions.

This is a wonderful way to get students actively involved with the information literally by getting them up and out of their seats. Or you could do this as a stations or centers activity too! This is a great activity to celebrate Constitution Day!

Little prep work to save you time:
1. Print posters and organizers
2. Copy two scavenger hunt organizers (back-to-back)
3. Post posters around the classroom (or at stations/centers)
4. Assign partners or groups
5. Hand out scavenger hunt organizers and clipboards
6. Set timer (about 5 mins at each spot)
7. Have students read and answer questions
8. Then rotate to the next spot
9. Check their answers whole group or have them self-check using answer keys

There is an additional “WE THE PEOPLE” acrostic chart for students to write down one fact for each letter. This works well for fast finishers or as an additional challenge activity. I’ve also included a ”Classroom Constitution” page for you as an extension activity. Answer keys are included.

Be sure to check out the PREVIEW for more information.
