Class 6 NCERT bridge course Answers Activity W3.3 A Treasure Hunt

 Activity W3.3 A Treasure Hunt 

 Provide each student with a copy of the treasure map, which includes coordinates (i.e., pairs of numbers discussed in earlier activity) marking the location of the treasure. 

 Explain the objective of the activity: to use the given coordinates to locate the treasure. 

 Allow students to work individually or in pairs to navigate the map and find the treasure.

Once the treasure is found, celebrate the successful completion of the hunt and discuss the coordinates used to locate the treasure. 

 Encourage students to create their own treasure maps for future activities, incorporating coordinates and landmarks of their choice. 

Creating patterns and designs with rotational and reflection symmetry Symmetry is a property where one shape or arrangement can be transformed into another that looks the same.

Let’s imagine this map uses a simple grid system: the bottom left is (0,0) and the top right is (10,10). Here's how we can place the main points:

• Starting point (where the pirate boy is) — (9,2)

• Pirate Ship — (2,1)

• Skull Rock — (3,5)

• Crocodile Pond — (5,6)

• Lighthouse — (7,9)

• Dragon Cave — (8,6)

• X Marks the Treasure — (6,3)

Path to the Treasure:

1. Start at (9,2) — The boy.

2. Head southwest to the Pirate Ship at (2,1).

3. Move north to the Skull Rock at (3,5).

4. Go northeast to Crocodile Pond at (5,6).

5. Move southeast to reach the Treasure at (6,3).

Named Points:

• A (9,2) — Start

• B (2,1) — Pirate Ship

• C (3,5) — Skull Rock

• D (5,6) — Crocodile Pond

• E (6,3) — Treasure!

So the final treasure is at Point E (6,3).

The path starts at the boy, passes the pirate ship, skull rock, crocodile pond, and finally reaches the treasure at (6,3).

3. Snake — (5,7)

4. Water Pond — (5,6)

5. Skull Rock — (3,5)
