Students will practice finding the area of figures on the coordinate plane with this Scavenger Hunt activity. This includes parallelograms, rectangles, squares, triangles, kites, rhombi, semicircles, and composite figures. Students will need to use the Pythagorean Theorem on many problems to find side lengths. Problems range in difficulty. This activity was created for a high school level geometry class.
This scavenger hunt includes 16 problems and a student recording worksheet. Hang the problems around the room (or in the hallway) and distribute the recording worksheet to each student. Clipboards work very well for this type of activity! Place your students in groups of 2-3 and assign each group a place to start. They solve the problem at the station, then use their answer to lead them to the next problem. They should finish the Scavenger Hunt at the same problem they started with.
