Ancient Rome

Welcome: Ancient Rome
Description: We are pre-service teachers in the Special Education program at University of Maine at Farmington. This is our first time developing a WebQuest, for SED 314 (Content Area Literacy Methods in Special Education). Our focus was on Ancient Rome, and how it has effected modern day entertainment. Our goal for this WebQuest is to have the students understand connections between Ancient Rome, and how it has influenced todays culture through different attractions. It took quite a bit of work and collaboration, and we learned quite a lot. Please consider this assignment in how it reflects a lesson plan. Enjoy!
