Ideas for WebQuest

After viewing several Webquests online I am becoming a fan! I was worried that it would be difficult to create a Webquest for kindergarteners, but apparently that is not the case. One important thing I noticed was that although the directions were easy to follow, an adult will probably need to be availabe at least for the first time through to read the directions.

Because literacy is a foundation for future learning, I have decided to create my webquest on letters. My Webquest will direct students to fun games for learning the lower and upper case letters of the alphabet as well as the sounds the letters make. Many of the students in my kindergarten class can do this already; my Webquest will offer those that have not mastered this skill some extra help. I think the kids will enjoy learning letters from a new, fun, and interactive medium.

Rebecca__you have totally inspired me. You have taken such a simple concept and worked it to your technology. I LOVE it. I try an dmake everything too complicated and i think sometimes I can miss the point of the learning. So KUDOS you smarty!!
Hey I also posted a reply yo the reply you gave me and I will just repeat what I wrote there:
I have a really terrific resource for the 6 traits in Kindergarten. My cooperating teacher outlined what the 6 traits looks like at the developmentally appropriate aage for 5 and 6 year olds. for example, looking for voice in a piece of "writing" actually comes through in the kinds of details they choose to use in pictures. I will bring it for our next Kindergarten meeting. HOOWOO. thanks for the respone you are kind and nice and i like youafovftvk
