Hi everyone,

Warning: my lesson plan might seem a little crazy/unrealistic (?), but I would like to try it next school year with your help/insight. Many thanks for your input! ~ Megan F.

Megan, Should we be posting the networking lesson on a separate page lie you did? I think I'll do the same. Do you know how many pages a wiki can have? ~Lauren

Hi Megan,

The scavenger hunt sounds like a fun introduction! What a great idea!

Some questions to think about: Is the Think Quest topic about Futemna Base? yes Can you incorporate social studies standards? I could easily do this by collaborating with a SS teacher How are you going to asses all that you are assessing? Formative assessment, checklist, rubric? I will basically be checking for understanding and giving students credit for positive attitude and participation--I even add this to checklists. What ways can you think of to differentiate for your current students? It would be helpful to list something more specific. The AVID class is basically a college prep class for gifted students and it has its own set of standards.

I think your ideas in your lesson are fun? You may want to put in your preplanning that you are going to plan a few Think Quests so you understand the process and possible downfalls.

Well done! -Lynne

Megan I really liked the lesson and I am a bit curious about how do you share how to use the ThinkQuest with your students? I use an infocus machine connected to the Internet and my Smartboard. Do you have some instructions that you will provide? I think your studnets will really enjoy the lesson. Anna Marie
