Hunting and Gathering


The kids began hunting and gathering by playing a matching game. The boys from each band matched animals and the girls matched fruits, edible roots, and nuts. The numbers on the cards were significant when they actually "hunted and gathered."

The boys from Mrs. Webb's class think about their next moves.

Shyanne hopes for a match.

Rachal and a successful match?

Mitch throws an arrow, hoping to land it in one of the targets (5 hula hoops). They had 3 throws per hunt. If the arrow landed in the target on the first attempt, they scored 3 times the number on the card; second attempt = 2 times the number on the card; third attempt = the number on the card.

Did Jake have good aim?

The girls needed to pick up 40 seeds. If they could do it in 30 seconds, they received 3 times the number on their card; 40 seconds = 2 times the number on the card; more than 50 seconds = the number on the card. Kendall tries for her band.
