Implementation Plan: Webquest

Teacher: Teresa McCray Seals

Where will I conduct the WebQuest? I will conduct my webquest in my classroom at Kozminski.
Which students are performing the WebQuest (class type and grade level)? Kindergarten students will be performing this webquest.
How many computers will be used? There will be two computers used in the classroom.
What is the Computer-to-Student Ratio? The ratio will be two student to each computer.
Who will test my WebQuest? The mentors will test my webquest.
How will I present the WebQuest to my students? The webquest will be presented to the students during the reading block..
How will I prepare my students technologically?

 

I will allow the students time on the computer and practice using the mouse.
What is my back-up plan if I cannot get access to the technology as planned? My backup plan will be reading the students stories about the body and have them identify the different parts of the body from the pictures. We will also trace each other bodies on butcher block paper, and paste the body parts in the correct places.
Who can I ask for technological assistance? I can ask our computer teacher at my school for technical assistance.
How will I monitor the students during the WebQuest? As I walk  around the classroom I can see what is being done by the students. I will also check their journals daily.
What is my plan for students who misbehave? We always discuss and make classrules for the school year. The students decide what should be done for students who misbehave during classtime.
What follow-up activities will the students perform?

 

The students will continue to work in their journals, discussing a body part a day . They will draw the body part and tell what we use it for and why we  need it.
When/Where can I get extended computer access? I can get extended computer access through the wit program.
What are some back-up sites the students can visit, if necessary? The  students can rework on the sites listed in the website.
How will I assess student progress?

 

I will the rubrics listed in the teacher's and student's webquest.  The students will also tell what they have learned during the lesson. Their journals will also be used in assessing their progress.
How will I allow for feedback? The students will brainstorm and discuss which part of the body they liked best.
