Webquest

I finished my webquest! I found a great website (www.instantprojects.org) that you can use as a template and it worked really well. I really like the idea of using webquests in my classroom. This is the first experiences that I've had with them, but they would fit perfectly into my curriculum. I like the fact that students can do them at school or at home and in groups or individually. There are so many options. Since my class is a twelve week class, time is always an issue. By assigning a webquest for students to work on outside of class, they are able to do the majority of the work outside of the classroom, which would free up more time in class to cover more topics! I will definitely be using webquests when I return to the classroom! If you want to check out my webquest you can find it here:
