WebQuest

A WebQuest is an inquiry-oriented lesson format in which most or all the information that learners work with comes from the web. These can be created using various programs, including a simple word processing document that includes links to websites.
  • The Introduction orients students and captures their interest.
  • The Task describes the activity's end product.
  • The Process explains strategies students should use to complete the task.
  • The Resources are the Web sites students will use to complete the task.
  • The Evaluation measures the results of the activity.
  • The Conclusion sums up the activity and encourages students to reflect on its process and results.

I honestly didn't love the format in which we did this for our tech class. It was wayyy to confusing and too many tools were required. I would use a maximum of 3 tools in a webquest. It would be a really fun way to learn though. The formant for google cites works best.

Solar System 6th Grade Science Standard 3: Students will understand the relationship an attributes of objects in the solar system. Ed. Tech.

I remember back in 6th grade, my teacher had . pictures of the planets up on her wall. She would always quiz us on them. Now I can remember all the planets in order. In my Animoto I wanted to include some fun and cool facts about the planes so as I teach this to my class here are some fun facts I can use. Mercury is the closest one to the sun, but it also has ice on it's surface. Venus and Mercury have no moons. No one knows how old Saturns's rings are. Neptune has supersonic winds. There are two types of pla...

Human Skeleton 3rd Grade Health Standard 3; Objective 1: Summarize the functions of the skeletal and muscular systems. Ed. Tech. Standard 4: Use general purpose productivity tools and peripherals to support personal productivity, to remediate skill deficits, and to facilitate learning through the curriculum. I created this Thing Link to help my students understand the human skeleton. The human skeleton can be hard to learn for younger kids. I created this Thing Link not only to quiz kids but also to teach them the human skeletal system. It includes many of the basic bone names. There is also a fun rap song that I found on YouTube that I included. I want my students to learn about themselves, what they are made of, literally! Bones are very important to know. I had a bone vocabulary test in each of my health classes in junior high and high school. In my classroom I want to teach my student  the bones song. Over the curriculum we will learn the bone by studying this Thing Link ...

Pinterest Page Ed. Tech. Standard 5: Use technology tools for individual and collaborative writing, communication, and publishing activities to create knowledge products for audiences inside and outside the classroom. My Pinterest page that I created will not only help me but also other teacher in search for inspiration. This page includes activities, quotes, lessons, and classroom decor. I use Pinterest on the daily and highly recommend it to any and all teachers to use it to get ideas for teaching styles and classroom looks! I'm constantly pinning fun science fair projects and fun art projects. These ideas will not only help me have fun in my classroom but also my students to enjoy their year and have fun in my class!
