NYC Scavenger Hunt Project

Image

For this unit we will be learning how to use compasses to locate object that have been hidden.  You will be given coordinates and a distance to be traveled.  For example you may be given the direction to set your compass at 90 degrees and walk 120 feet.  Once you arrive at your destination there will be coordinates to the next object.

Groups of five will be assigned, and your first job is to create a nine piece puzzle with one fact about a NYC landmark in each piece.  Please click on your fact sheet below and write down interesting facts that you find
