Arkansas Scrapbook & Scavenger Hunt

Each year, Southside Fourth Graders take part in an Arkansas Scavenger Hunt! Collected items are proudly displayed in a scrapbook, which will be due at the end of the year. The goal is to collect as many items as possible for the scrapbook. Each item has a designated point value and it is possible to earn up to 149 points! Your goal is to try to get at least 100 points. Some of these items are easy to find and may even be found at school. Others may require a little extra effort. Scrapbook creativity is very important and can add up to 15 points alone.
