Learners
This webquest is designed for fourth grade elementary students, but could be used for any upper elementary and middle school aged group. The lesson will be used in two subjects. In social studies we will be doing the group work, which includes researching the country and their culture, making the Popplet organizers and presentations, and having the culture day. In writing/language arts students will learn how to write a friendly letter, will write a practice letter to me, and will write to pen pals.
This lesson is will require students to use reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills, as well as research, technology, and teamwork skills. Students will be using technology, research, and reading skills when doing process A. Students will use speaking skills when giving the presentations, and listening skills while they take some notes during other groups' presentations. Finally, during process B students will again use reading and listening skills to learn how to write a friendly letter. They will show writing skills when they write the practice letter to the teacher and when they write to their pen pals.
