Abstract
Online scavenger hunts have become increasingly popular in recent months and have drawn the interest of K-12 educators as they switched to remote and virtual teaching. However, there is a gap in the literature associated with the benefits and challenges of creating online scavenger hunts for K-5 learners. This study addresses that gap as preservice teachers enrolled in a content area literacy course designed K-5 content area-based online scavenger hunts. Results from this action research study indicate that preservice teachers found that they could differentiate the scavenger hunts to make them engaging for learners while also teaching them technology and literacy skills. Data revealed that the challenges included the time it takes to create an online scavenger hunt as well as the access learners may have to complete the activity.
