Treasure Hunt Directions

 

1.       Open My Computer, Teachers on May, may_web, mayww, your grade level folder, your folder (if you have one).  Right click the mouse to make a pop-up window appear.  Select New, Folder.  Name the folder whatever you want to call your treasure hunt.  Do NOT put any spaces into the name.  Close all windows.

2.     Follow this link to view a treasure hunt template from Region 20: 

      http://www.esc20.net/etprojects/templates/tthunt.html

3.     To save this template, choose File, Save As.  Save the template into the new folder you just created.  Give it a name that does not have any spaces in it.

4.     Now, open Netscape Composer.  From the file menu, choose open.  Open the file you just saved into your folder. 

5.     Use the template as a guide to create your treasure hunt.   

6.     You can add more questions for your students to answer, since the template only includes four.  To improve the quality of your treasure hunt, include questions that involve higher level thinking. 

7.     Add background color, edit the font, or add graphics to improve the design of the treasure hunt.  Remember that graphics need to be saved into the Web page folder before you insert them into the page. 

8.     Be sure to credit any sources, such as Region 20 or clipart sites, that you used to create your Web page.

9.     Save all of your changes.

10.  Open your teacher Web page or grade level page in Netscape Composer.  Create a link from that page to your treasure hunt.

11.   Email your course instructor when your treasure hunt is finished.
