QR Challenge: Foundations- Playground

Created using the ClassTools QR Treasure Hunt Generator

Teacher Notes

A. Prior to the lesson:

1. Arrange students into groups. Each group needs at least ONE person who has a mobile device.

2. If their phone camera doesn't automatically detect and decode QR codes, ask students to

3. Print out the QR codes.

4. Cut them out and place them around your class / school.


B. The lesson:

1. Give each group a clipboard and a piece of paper so they can write down the decoded questions and their answers to them.

2. Explain to the students that the codes are hidden around the school. Each team will get ONE point for each question they correctly decode and copy down onto their sheet, and a further TWO points if they can then provide the correct answer and write this down underneath the question.

3. Away they go! The winner is the first team to return with the most correct answers in the time available. This could be within a lesson, or during a lunchbreak, or even over several days!

4. Supervision is the alert, proactive ability of a truly professional faculty/staff member to circulate within a group of students, interacting in a positive and constructive way, scanning for potential problems, diffusing them before they arise, and motivating students to do their best and monitor their own behavior. In short, the vision possessed by the supervising faculty/staff member.Each staff member is responsible for being with their students. On the playground, staff members should interact positively with students. The goal is to supervise in a warm and respectful manner. If a student violates one or more of the Guidelines for Playground, use a respectful, but firm voice to inform him/her of what is expected. Point out the appropriate behavior the student needs to exhibit. Every effort should be made to keep the situation from escalating.Question 4
