Basic Project Information
Title: Culture Boxes Scavenger Hunt and exchange (ID:3142)
Begin & End Dates: 1/01/07 to 12/31/07
Number of Classrooms: No limit
Age Range: 13 to 21 years
Target Audience: Anyone
Summary:
I am a high school teacher who is looking for high schools in the United States and around the world to exchange culture boxes with. Let me explain. We send you a box with a clue of where we are located at and your students try and guess where we are. Then in 2 weeks you would send us a box with a clue about where you are located and my students would try and guess. So it is not a great time commitment. The clues would start out hard and get easier as they go. After both schools have guess the location of the other we could try pen pals or email pen pals or message board pals. I am open to just about anything. If you want to be a part of this exchange email me at hortongary@hotmail.com. I plan to start this after the first of the year and run it from January 2007 till June 2007 or about 7 months then reevaluate it at that point.
