There is a custom to read the book of Ruth on Shavuot. In this scavenger hunt, students travel through the book of Ruth and pick up pieces of information that will help them to understand the story and see how it is connected to other parts of the Tanakh. At the end, they will learn who Ruth's famous descendant is and exactly how they are connected.
