Ecology Scavenger Hunt Collection - 8 Digital, Device-Based Hunts are included. Each will get your kids out of their seats, engaged, utilizing technology, and collaborating to solve real problems and test their knowledge. These activities work well across grades as a means of assessment, review, and/or instruction. These hunts were designed for high school biology students.

Purchasing this bundle will save you over 50%!

This activity is the coolest thing I've created and your kids are going to love it, mine do. Think of a scavenger hunt, then add devices (Smartphones, Chromebooks, Laptops, or Tablets), engaged students, and learning through assessment and you have this resource.

Quick Disclaimer. In order to use these activities, your classroom must have at least 1 device per 3 students. Smartphones, Chromebooks, Laptops, and Tablets will all work perfectly. The wording and delivery make this resource perfect for a wide range of grade levels. If for some reason you feel this hunt isn't perfect for your classroom, I'm happy to refund your purchase no questions asked.

Your Collection Includes:

1) Energy Flow in Ecosystems

2) Invasive Species

3) Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

4) Cycling of Matter in Ecosystems

5) Ecosystems and Ecological Succession

6) Interactions within Ecosystems

7) Plant Reproduction

8) Biodiversity

*********************************

I've created a video that walks you through the entire activity. I did it using screen capture software on my phone so you can see exactly what your students will see. CLICK HERE to have a look.

*********************************

Download the Sample to see firsthand, exactly how the Hunts work and why your kids will love them. Included in the sample is the full version of

- Our Solar System

- Static Electricity

**I find providing full scavenger hunt examples is a more effective way to show what the resource offers compared to only displaying a partial version of your topic.**
