China WebQuest

Introduction

Hello, class! Today, we are going to travel 6,468 miles all the way to China! However, since I couldn’t afford 140 plane tickets for you all, we are going to do our exploring through the internet. Today you will be completing a WebQuest to become more familiar with details of what China is like today.

Task

Your task is to visit the different websites within this WebQuest; do not visit websites that are not a part of this WebQuest or you will no longer be able to use the computer.
