You will need to cruise around this presentation and find all the items on your list. Items can be text or images within the site or at one of the links. As you find the items, return to the scavenger list page and fill in the answer on the notepad. There is only one right response to each question; however, you can also delete items from your notes that you think are incorrect. Oh, by the way, the object of the game is to find all the items in the shortest amount of time so quit reading and start looking. Good luck!STARTSKIP GAME4Scavenger Game ListScavenger Game List1.
