Grandparent's Day - WebQuest, Interview/Presentation Project, & Word Search Puzzle
$3.50
Lesson Overview
In this lesson, students learn about the history of Grandparent’s Day as they complete a WebQuest (Internet Scavenger Hunt) to answer questions about the topic. A complete answer key is provided for easy grading, along with resources for both teachers and students. Two versions of the WebQuest are included to let teachers print the questions or to provide them digitally as an interactive page in an editable Microsoft PowerPoint file. Next, students interview a grandparent (or another person they are close to from that generation) to compare life today with the life their grandparent lived. Interview questions are provided to encourage students to learn more about their grandparent through conversation. These questions can be answered through research on the Internet from that time period if the student does not have someone to interview. Using the answers from the questions, students create a presentation in either MS PowerPoint or Google Slides. Instructions/expectations are included for the project, along with a grading rubric. Additionally, a word search puzzle (with answer key) is included to use for early finishers or as a part of the lesson.
This lesson includes alternatives to be inclusive for students who are from non-traditional families as well. It was designed for middle school (grades 6-8) but could be used in upper elementary as well.
