Grade 8: HistoryQuest Civil War


Description:HistoryQuest8: Civil War

I need some more classes to participate in HistoryQuest8: Civil War!

This project is designed for 8th grade students studying US History. Through video conference technology, students are able to meet other students while learning about United States history. Prior to the video conference each classroom will create a presentation with clues about a mystery person, event, invention, issue/problem or section from a document. The other classrooms, using maps, the Internet, textbooks, and other resources, will try to discover the history mystery presented by each participating classroom.

Grade Level Note: If you study the Civil War in Grade 7, 8, 9, or 10, we'd still love to have you participate!
