I used this as an introduction to our simple machines unit. The students enjoyed working on it and were engaged while doing so.
I just used this Webquest for the 2nd year in a row and it still rocks!
This was exactly what I was looking for. It fit perfectly in my Simple Machines Unit.
Great resource, very helpful for my students. I will definitely continue using.
