• 5th-6th Grade

In collaboration between a fifth grade teacher and an elementary LMS, a WebQuest of National Parks was created. This WebQuest provided a cooperative group experience whereby students researched the physical, historical, geographical, and ecological aspects of various National Parks. Their work culminated in a written report and oral Power Point presentation. This WebQuest can be found at: http://gcs.neric.org/faculty/ctubbs/National_Park_Webquest.htm In the course of this research project, students were taught the importance and process of creating a bibliography. Instruction was focused on bibliographies for books, magazines, encyclopedia articles, and web pages because those were the sources the students would use in their research.
