Graphs 1: Fairytale Treasure Hunt

This educational treasure hunt for ages 5 to 10 takes students on an adventure to an island full of magical creatures, including fairies, dragons, and mermaids, where they follow the graphical clues to find their way home again.  Each page has a graphing puzzle which, when solved, identifies the location of the next clue.

This treasure hunt is a great way to practice reading horizontal bar charts, pie charts relating equivalent terms, like 1/2, half, and 50%, and bar charts using relative terms like "least" and "best".

This activity takes around 1 - 2 hours to complete.

To use this treasure hunt you will need a printer, eleven pieces of paper, and the following locations:

• Baseball Cap
• Cheese
• Umbrella
• Potted Plant
• Chair
• Bed
