WebQuest
Endangered Animals: What can we do?
Teacher Page

As an undergraduate in the degree of Special Education, taking a technology class, this is my first experience creating a webquest. I have no previous knowledge or expertise in the subject of science. If you are a soon to be teacher like myself, I hope you were able to follow the team challenge lesson plan, accept the challenge and complete the challenge as all of my pretend students have. I must say, after many deep breathing and learning of how to copy and paste on to this format, I was able to complete the webquest for my professor to grade.
Standards
The standards I focused on came from Minnesota Standards of Effective Practice

I had no help and no assistance in the making of my first webquest.
Other
Attention Teachers, if this is your first or millionth webquest, I suggest before you make your own webquest, look at other's webquest to see how they have done theirs. I also suggest writing your entries into a word document and then copy and pasting the information into the page and then saving as soon as possible. There are a lot of variations to webquests in this format, so do your research. I hope you have enjoyed my webquest I have presented to you.
