Introduction
Hello Everyone!
Welcome to Oh What A Year! In this webquest, we will discuss how the different times of the year relates to the daylight during those times. We will discuss all of the concepts in class before you begin this project. All of you will be in groups of four, where each student will be assigned a different season.
Have fun with this and don't forget to pass in all required material!
Task
The task for all students is to find information about the amount of daylight in different parts of the world depending on the season. All students in the groups will need to partcipate. There are websites that you can go to, listed in the process area. Please do not research anywhere else, unless you have permission to do so from your teacher.
Process
Here are the guidelines and how each student will do the project:
Student 1: winter season
Amount of daylight in: New Hampshire, Australia, Antarctica, Alaska, and Moscow, Russia
What kind of clothing is needed for winter?
What grows during this season?
Student 2: spring season
Student 3: summer season
Student 4: fall season
Each student will:
