🔍 What’s the “Scavenger Hunt”?
Imagine students working together, moving around the classroom, and completing fun challenges—all while learning the real impact of social media on friendships, feelings, and self-worth.
💬 Clue 1: Connect with Your Friends Students “send” an imaginary text to a classmate with a kind message 💌—showing how social media can spread positivity.
👍 Clue 2: The Like Challenge Kids stand in a circle and share one thing they love about themselves. Instead of counting online likes, classmates cheer them on in real life. 👏👏👏
