Vocabulary Scavenger Hunt

Introduction

Hi there! You will be split into groups and set on a mission to find definitions of various words from our unit of study! Since we have been talking about city life, all of your words will come from things you may see in the city!

Task

Here are all of the words your group needs to

 A.) Define

 B.) Find a picture

bus

sign

billboard

car

bicycle

subway

airport

bridge

fountain

market

park

playground

road

zoo

Here are the websites you must use. PLEASE DON'T USE ANYTHING OTHER THAN THESE WEBSITES!

Process

You will work with the students at your table. Each table will be given two laptops. One person should be assigned to operate the laptop for finding definitions. Another student should be assigned to operate the other laptop for finding pictures that go along with all of the words. Of the other two students in your group, one should be writing down the definitions and the other should be drawing the pictures you find.

Evaluation

Students will be evaluated on how thorough their definitions are, how well they cooperate, and if their pictures match up with their definitions.

Conclusion

I hope you enjoyed defining and drawing things found in the city! Next week, we will be designing our own cities!
