A Growing Nation Part 2

Today my group taught an inquiry lesson to the fifth grade class. We brought back our friend Petunia the Panda. Petunia's library had been flooded by the snow storm we had, and all her biography books were destroyed. She needed the fifth graders to help her using their I-pads. Each group was assigned a teacher as well as a person Petunia needed them to research. The students used a WebQuest on their I-Pads to research on approved links. The people they had to research were Samuel Slater, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Andrew Jackson, and Frederick Douglass. My group researched Elizabeth Cady Stanton. The WebQuest was also really easy to navigate for the students and easy to make for the teachers. I am excited to use WebQuests in my future classroom. The students enjoyed writing their letters to Petunia, and Petunia was grateful for all their help.
