Book Hunt with Aurasma App


 To reinforce the Zaption book tour from last week, students went on a book hunt. Using location in the library, call numbers, team work, and the Aurasma app on the iPad, students searched for books in the different sections of the library. 3rd graders had 4 books to hunt for. 4th and 5th graders had 6 books to hunt for. It was awesome to see the excitement, engagement and team work among the students. The hard work and time spent to develop this book hunt was WELL WORTH IT! Many students rated this week's lesson with a smiley face again. :)
