Here is my Webquest :)

http://ia.usu.edu/viewproject.php?project=ia:13386

At first I tried to do my webquest on a webquest site, I thought that it was too complicated and confusing. I decided to use Instructional Architect instead. I thought that it was really easy to hyperlink the websites and I learned how to hyperlink Googledocs, I thought that that was cool. There were two things that I didn't like about AI was 1. the editing box I felt was too small, it should have been bigger to view it all. 2. There wasn't much background variety. If I had more time I would find a webquest site that is easy to use with more graphic varieties.

Digital Photography

I would use digital photography with older students. I don't think that they would be mature enough to handle digital cameras till the middle of 4th grade. I think that it would be fun and hands-on for the students for math. They could also take pictures of events or people that represent vocabulary words or spelling words they are learning.

Web applications for Math and Science

I looked through the web applications while keeping my 4th grade class in mind.

The Build a Prairie fits perfectly into their curriculum, as they are learning about habitats. The link to this is www.bellmuseum.org/distancelearning/prairie/build/ This would cover Standard 5 in Science

I found the perfect site for 4th grade math: http://www.uen.org/3-6interactives/math.shtml

This math site covers all standards that are required for 4th grade math.

In my 4th grade team the teachers teach a unit, test, and then do remediation for those who did not get 90% or above and then test those students again. I think that these two websites have games that would be great to have the 90% and above kids play while the others are being tested.
