Geography - webquests

I've just found a website with links to various webquests. These may come in useful when I am thinking about independent research tasks for next year (more on that later!). The website includes information on how webquests link to the TASC wheel (Thinking Actively in a Social Context).

It includes a webquest about countries, in which pupils take on the role of a tour guide and research necessary background information. It is designed for KS3, but could be adapted for upper KS2. It includes links for finding out about Brazil, Greece and Australia.

There is also one about weather, comparing forecasts with recording the actual weather.
