This WebQuest will guide you through your research to help you answer questions about your subject. Be sure to read the instructions so you know what to do when you get to each website. ** __ Portrait Scavenger Hunt __ ** Make sure you have a copy of the portrait scavenger hunt. Click on the blue link for the first portrait and answer as many questions as you can about your person! ** Portrait #1:   ** [] Once you have answered as many questions as you can for portrait #1, click on the link for portrait #2 to see if you can make any more guesses or find more clues! ** Portrait #2:   ** [] Now that you have found all of the clues from both portraits, answer the final questions in the scavenger hunt, thinking about which portrait helped you answer more questions and why. ** __ Starting your Research __ ** Make sure you have your graphic organizer and something to write with so you can start your research! Look over the research questions so you know what to look for. If you have another question you want to answer, you can add it to the graphic organizer at the bottom. There might be some information that does not answer your research questions. You can put this under interesting facts, or choose not to write it down at all. Now that you’re ready to answer some research questions, click on the link to your article to learn about your subject, and don’t forget to take notes! ** Article  ** [] ** After the Article  ** Did you find answers to any research questions? If you did not find all of the answers, remember that you have other resources, so don’t worry! Let’s move on to your next resource. Remember, if you already found a fact in one resource, you don’t have to write it down again. Just take notes on ** new ** information! ** Video  ** The next link will take you to a short video about your person’s life. Remember that you can watch the video as many times as you want to get the important information. You can also pause the video so you can take notes, and slide the moving dot back a little bit to hear something again. To start the video, click on the link and hit “Start the Story” or the play button. [] When the video is done, you can click “Read the Story Again” to start over. ** Book  ** Now that you have learned about your subject online, it’s time to read a book about your subject to learn more! The book will have a lot of information, so remember to only write down the ** most important ** facts. If you find important new facts that answer research questions, write them down in your graphic organizer! The classroom library has a few books on your subject: Since there is more than one book, you and your teacher can decide which one is best for you. Find this book in one of the “Biography” bins and start researching!
