Where I Come From is Like This...

Introduction

Welcome Students!

I have designed a Web Quest so that I can learn what it is like where you are from!  Let's get started! 

Task

In this Web Quest, you are going to share your family culture.  What are your traditions, favorite foods, daily routines, and rites of passage?  What is expected of you as a young person?  As an elderly person?  Through this Web Quest I would like you to collect internet items that express the life cycle of a member of your culture.

Process

Over the course of one school week, you will research your own culture on the internet.  You are to include the following:

YOUR NAME

YOUR ORIGIN OF BIRTH

LANGUAGE SPOKEN

RELIGION (IF APPLICABLE)

MOST CELEBRATED HOLIDAYS AND A DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE CELEBRATION.

CHILDREN'S ROLES

PARENT ROLES

MEN'S ROLES

WOMEN'S ROLES

ELDER'S ROLES

You will research these items and describe them in your own words.  Please include a minimum of 4 images to accompany your Web Quest.

Evaluation

You will be graded on the following:

All items researched  yes/no

Minimum of 4 images used  yes/no

Description of items in your own words  yes/no

On time  yes/no

Conclusion

I am so excited to learn about what it's like where YOU come from!  Have fun collecting all this information and representing it with images!
