=== Scavenger hunt ===
A scavenger hunt is a mingling activity that promotes open interaction between students.<ref name=":05"/>

Example:
# The instructor gives students a sheet with instructions on it. (e.g. Find someone who has a birthday in the same month as yours.)
# Students go around the classroom asking and answering questions about each other.
# The students wish to find all of the answers they need to complete the scavenger hunt.
In doing this activity, students have the opportunity to speak with a number of classmates, while still being in a low-pressure situation, and talking to only one person at a time. After learning more about each other, and getting to share about themselves, students will feel more comfortable talking and sharing during other communicative activities.<ref name=":05" />

Since this activity is not as structured as some of the others, it is important for instructors to add structure. If certain vocabulary should be used in students' conversations, or a certain grammar is necessary to complete the activity, then instructors should incorporate that into the scavenger hunt.<ref name=":05" />
