Scavenger Hunt & OneNote

Here are some ideas how to use OneNote for creating fun scavenger hunts. Having in mind all the things you can insert and embed into OneNote it really takes the activity to a completely different level. And who said scavenger hunt inside a classroom should not be fun. Here is what you can do:
Use the Collaboration space to create a scavenger Hunt template. Use a table to specify the places where teams should share their videos, photos, audio or embeds.

Give fun scavenger hunt tasks as creating a video of an earthquake in Minecraft world. Have them use minecraft.makecode.com to create an earthquake. Or a Microbit Hello sign gif using makecode.microbit.org, PowerPoint screen recording and giphy.com. Or a Lego stop motion film.

Students can use skatchfab.com to export Minecraft worlds and embed them in OneNote. So have them export and embed a volcano, coral reef or even a gladiator ring.

For a photo hunt they can create a life-sized structure of Lego bricks, a snapshot of Skype call with someone from another continent holding a sign of the location. Or a screenshot of a flower trail code in minecraft.makecode.com or any other project.

And finally as audio hunt have them record sounds around them. It may be whisper, nature sounds, coins, foreign language, anything. Or simply embed a Flipgrid and give tasks as sing in a DarthVader voice.

See that is why teaching with OneNote is so so fun. If you want to learn more about OneNote and hear a lot more ideas as this one subscribe to OneNote with Marija course starting September 1st.
