To anyone who would like to use it, please find attached a Treasure Hunt template I did with Year 8s in China Town this year. You’ll see it was over New Year period so a couple of questions might need to be changed
but it was a ‘character’ treasure hunt in the main.
The sheet doesn’t come up too clearly as I had to scan it - if you want to recreate, the map came via Google.
The aim of our trip was simply to see China Town - despite us being a London school, many girls have not been - and to have a Chinese lunch. I took 24 girls this year and 36 the year before - we split them up into groups of 8, each with a teacher
and they happily followed the trail and scribbled down characters. It was a very low key trip and not as educational as including a trip to one of the museums but the students certainly had fun and engaged with the language. They were given a bit of time
after the hunt to buy souvenirs and bubble tea which also went down very well………
Hope it helps,
