Matter is no laughing matter! Webquest

http://www.mcs.k12.nc.us/wq/labarre/matter/index.htm

This webquest is designed for 2nd grade students to learn the different types of matter. It is interdisciplinary, combining both science and language arts skills. It requires the children to find and write about different types of matter in their classroom, while working in pairs. It uses "circle maps" as a teaching tool, as well as a computer program called "Kid Pix," which must be a drawing program because it asks children to draw what they see. The evaluation rubric was clear and simple, easy for second graders to use by themselves.

Generally, it was easy to use, but the links were hard to read because they were yellow against a gray background.
