Hello Parents/Guardians!
This post is to inform you of the exciting educational journey our room is going to be taking! As part of our upcoming weather unit, students will be engaging in a WebQuest created by me. You may be asking yourself, just what is a WebQuest? A Webquest is an interactive learning opportunity that students complete using technology. A WebQuest has a major goal to accomplish to demonstrate student learning. Along the way students follow the process outlined on the page to learn information and create their final project. Here is a great video explaining WebQuests, followed by some sites with examples!

Our WebQuest will take students on a journey learning about how different weather patterns are formed, how we can predict weather, and how weather can affect our world. The final project will be for students to create their own weather forecasts! Here is the link to our WebQuest:

Please talk to your students about what they learned and did each day as we work on our WebQuests. This will help cement their learning, and may even teach you some new information!
As always thanks so much for all the support you give your student and our classroom!
Ms. LaCroix
