Teacher Introduction

 

Teachers,

    This webquest was designed as an extension to the insect curriculum for first grade.  It incorporates multiple subjects, such as math, science and language arts.  There are many links that explore a variety of insects that include facts.  If you have access to a computer lab, the webquest could be introduced during your lab time.  This would help children to become familiar with the page and learn how to navigate it.  There is quite a bit of information for the children to explore so it is important to give a brief introduction to it.  Enjoy
