Description
This Pacific Ocean Whales Webquest is designed for students to explore and research whales in the Pacific Ocean. This Webquest is a digital research project using Google Slides. Students will build a presentation about Pacific Ocean Whales as they complete their research. This Webquest can be used with multiple grade levels and student ability levels.
I used this resource in my middle and high school resource room as a supplemental activity during my current events period. This was a great supplement to learning about the Gray Whale Migration that occurs every year in mid-February as they journey North.
⭐️ Print and Digital Versions included!
⭐️ Students will learn research skills, how to navigate the web, and build a presentation about what they learned.
⭐️ Great for special ed classrooms, inclusion settings, and students with Autism.
This Whale Webquest is differentiated into TWO levels:
- The Regular Version is for students who can independently research a topic and build a presentation in Google Slides.
