Geometry Scavenger Hunt team: ________ __________ __________ ___________
Your group's job is to find real objects to represent the geometric solids listed below, and bring them back to the classroom. Do not attempt to bring large objects. You may not build them out of paper or other materials. You may bring objects that are a combination of solids. You must work together - no splitting up and going in different directions. You must not disturb other classes. You may not steal, or borrow without the owner's permission. You must return anything you borrow. If you cannot find an object, credit will be given for a verbal description (example: "a box of Cheerios") and a sketch. Sketch each one, and label it as to what the real object was. You must return to the classroom within the time limit.
