Color Scavenger Hunt in Kindergarten


On Monday, the kindergarten students were introduced to using the web browser Firefox. While many students are online at home visiting sites like Webkinz, Club Penguin, and PBS Kids, the purpose of the lesson was to demonstrate that the Internet can be used as a learning tool. In addition, I wanted to make sure every student could launch the browser, navigate multiple web sites using hyperlinks, use the back and forward buttons, and use the scroll bar.

Here is the link to the color scavenger hunt they completed today. Students used the individual color pages to identify an object, record the object on their scavenger hunt paper, and label their picture. This was a fun way to practice reading color words and a great way to introduce the children to the concept of reading for information.

Here is the link to the recording sheet.
