Treasure Hunt

Treasure Hunt is an activity in JumpStart 1st Grade (1999). It is designed to teach various skills at a first grade level.

Description
In order to go on a treasure hunt with Frankie, the player must first collect three scrolls with clues by playing other activities around the school. Once the clues have been collected, the player will be sent to the front yard of the school. The player must first answer a multiple-choice question that appears on the first scroll. The question can pertain to various subjects, such as math, science, and general knowledge. Then, the player can embark on a treasure hunt by clicking on the ship docked near the school.

In order to find treasure, the player must sail the ship to a certain island. A set of instructions will appear on the second scroll, and the player must plot out the ship's course on a map, using the map's grids as a guide. Once the ship has sailed to the correct island, the ship can dock there.

Once the ship is docked at an island, the third scroll will display a hint about where to find treasure on the island. When the player clicks in the correct spot, the treasure will appear in the player's treasure chest. The player can also click around the island to see various animations.

Digital manual description
When you have earned three clues to fill up the Treasure Hunter's Scroll, you're ready to go in search of buried treasure!

First, Frankie needs your help answering a question in the Front Yard.

Then, you get on board a ship to find an island. Your clue tells you where to find the island--either by its location relative to School Island or by the coordinates on the map. Use the navigational controls to take the boat to the island.

Once you land on the island, Frankie will give you another clue to find the treasure. Once you locate it, the treasure will go into your treasure chest. Click around the island to explore and you will find wonderful and magical things.

After you have completed the treasure hunt, click the back arrow on the toolbar to board the ship. Use the directional controls to sail back to School Island to start another treasure hunt.
