INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY WEBQUEST







The world is full of hard-working people (doctors, scientists, computer programmers, writers, sportsmen, artists, teachers, etc.) With their work our lives are easier and more interesting and we are happier.
These are five important people for us: Toni Morrison, Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin, Ada Augusta Byron, Marjorie Jackson Nelson, and Edmonia Lewis. Do you know them? What do they have in common?
With this WebQuest you will learn about their lives, works, and places of residence, and you will be able to show your findings to the rest of your school. You will work in pairs and groups and you will have different roles: biographers, work researchers and travel agents. Are you ready to begin?

Task : The final project will be a poster on an important woman. The poster will give information about her life, work, and an important city in her life. You will stick texts and pictures on a poster board. You will explain the poster to your classmates. Finally, the project will be hang on your school walls. Be neat and tidy . . . everybody will see your work!
