webquest

Part of the second grade core is to describe traditions, music, artwork, rhymes, and stories that distinguish cultures. I am going to be going to El Salvador so one of my webquest ideas is to focus on the cultural background of El Salvador. Some of the tasks could be things like what kind of music would you be listening to in this country, what would you need to take with you if you were going here, and different scenarios about this culture.

Another part of the core is weather so I was also thinking I could do a webquest on weather. There could be tasks such as how to prepare for certain weather situations (hurricane, tsunami, tornado). Some of the scenarios could be how people, plants, and animals would react to these extreme weather conditions and how they could prepare.
