Workshop: Origami Wizards

Workshop: Scavenger Hunt
For 3rd and 4th graders
In this online scavenger hunt, students will spin the wheel in each round to discover which object they will need to find. 30-second time limits will make this hunt challenging and only those students who stay within the time limit will win each round.
