Webquest Ideas

Today we were introduced to our new project. We will be creating an interactive lesson through creating a webquest page. I think this is a great idea to for elementary teachers if they want a fresh, new way to teach a subject. I am in the 5th grade right now in my practicum. Every 5th grade classroom has to do a state report, so i thought that it would be a good idea to base my webquest page on this. I want assign every student one of the states. The requirements will be to write a one page report on their state, find a famous person from their state and write a few facts on that famous person, and to draw a map of their state, and a picture of their famous person. These are just ideas, so I will most likely change and add different ones while I think about it more.

  1. I remember doing the state fair in 5th grade. We had to find famous facts, important people, landmarks, etc. of our state. That sounds like a really good idea though. Way to go Marianne!

  2. sounds like a good idea. Have you thought about what states to include as options? All 50, just a region?
