Clues Corner

Can you find the clue?

Week 1: The Corn Scramble!
Corn plays an important role in tribal diet and custom, although it can be a challenge to grow corn in Florida's climate. You'll find here a list of words sometimes associated with corn. Unscramble the letters of each word to form a synonym.

Week 2: Miko's Brochure
Yellow fever, a sometimes-deadly virus that threatened many settlers and natives in Florida, reached epidemic proportions during the 19th century. Come along and find out what else Miko discovers!

Week 3: Going Native
By the time the Spaniards arrived in Florida in 1513, the territory already held as many as 200,000 native people that the Spanish called cimarrones, or free people. Start with the letter "S" at the top of the circle.

Week 4: Museum Riddle
Look at the descriptions of museums given below. Only one of them matches Daniela's riddle. Can you identify which one?
