Webquest Ideas

Today we learned about Webquests. These allow children to gain experience with and exposure to using the information available on the web, without having to get lost in the navigating of the web. I think it provides a very engaging and exciting way for children to learn.

I've been brainstorming a few different topics I could do for my webquest. One is to create a webquest for 3-5 grade students about Endangered Species. I really think they'd enjoy researching about an animal that's endangered. Also, I've considered doing a webquest on natural disasters/safety, including earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, etc. This is another topic that I believe is always intriguing to students.

  1. I would suggest going with a topic that your practicum class is doing soon if you are in practicum now. otherwise, try to do something that you are passionate about, because when a teacher is enthusiastic about a topic it carries over to students.
