Treasure Hunt

=Treasure Hunt = This game is like minesweeper, but without the touchy subject of explosives. Create 49 cards with 1 treasure box, 3 pirates, 2 shovels, and 1 skull and bones (the rest a pile of dirt?). Place the treasure box, the shovel, the skull & bones, and pirates cards in a 7x7 grid on the board, hidden away from the students (make sure they don’t sneak a peek!). For the rows and columns, label them according to subjects that you’ve thought in the past weeks (at least 2 subjects).



How to play:

1)        Teams are divided into 2-3.

2)        1 captain for each team.
