The museum is in chaos, and Scrappy needs your students’ help to collect papers, exhibit signs, schedules, letters, lists, and tour information and put these papers back where they belong while dodging the cleaning and security robots. To obtain the clues necessary to return documents to their proper locations, students must examine each for topic, content, and form.

Introduction
A window was left open in the Moving Museum! Papers are scattered everywhere! Your job is to go around the museum, collecting as many papers as you can while avoiding the “guardbots” and “cleandroids.” You might find exhibit documents, announcements, letters, brochures, guides, manuals, memos, or other notes. When you find a paper, you can answer questions about it and earn points. You’ll also want to “send” it back to its correct location. To do that, you’ll use clues about its topic and content. If you send it to the wrong place, you’ll lose a stamp.
