Final Post: Good-Bye

I just wanted to thank Prof. Schmidt for all her hard work and dedication to this online class. She certainly kept me on my toes checking blackboard and my blog constantly. I'm sure most of us students share that sentiment! : ) I am actually going to save all the awesome links & reading materials to my delicious account this weekend. I certainly feel that so much of this information will come in handy for future classes and in my future teaching career. I also wanted to thank all my classmates for taking the time to post feedback on my blog, I really appreciate that from the bottom of my heart. If we don't receive feedback we can never further develop and learn. Maybe one day we will cross paths again in another class. The best of luck to everyone in your future endeavors and hope you have a great summer! Is anyone taking Summer classes in Jersey City? Let me know k, thank you! : )

Mexican Fiesta Take 2

http://questgarden.com/125/78/7/110501120219/

Webquest: Mexican Fiesta

My webquest was created for a second grade class.
It's an early writting assignment.
It also has Spanish Content knowledge as well. Students will plan a Mexican
Fiesta. They will make their own Mexican decorations and food. They will take a virtual trip via the Internet using Scholastic's Global Trek links.
Students will each have to write a page regarding their Mexican Fiesta experience. After, they are done with their writting assignment, we will create a scrapbook using everyones work. They will get evaluated on creativity, illustrations and titles for their pages.
Students will experience team work and have a sense of responsibility according to their tasks. Students will be exposed to different cultures and traditions. One my goals is to create diversity awareness at this early age.
I enjoyed using the questgarden website, the help tools were great and the graphics were quite user friendly. I hope you guys enjoy it. I had lots of fun creating this.
I appreciate all feedback. :)
