This webquest is designed to assist you in learning about hurricanes through Internet resources. Did you know that in November of 1998 a Vermont couple lost a 38' Sailboat in the Atlantic Ocean due to Hurricane Mitch!
Historically, individual hurricanes have caused the loss of thousands of lives and billions of dollars in damage as they ran their course over populated areas.
If you know that a hurricane is approaching your area, how can you prepare for the worst? What are your chances for survival?
Become informed by completing the activities in the following table.
STUDENT
TASKS
1) Visit each button in the table below. You will need to complete all of the activities included under each button. If any particular component of an individual assignment is not clear, a conference with your teacher is highly recommended. All of the completed activities must be kept in a self-maintained Portfolio which is due on the first of November.
2) Classroom presentations on Hurricanes will take place during the first week of November. This could be a Poster Project, Hyper studio or PowerPoint Presentation, Skit, or some other form of communication presenting what you learned.
