In Search of the perfect WebQuest

I am in search of a webquest to use in my 6th grade language arts classroom. My search is for an engaging lesson, that employs cooperative interactions while providing stimulating active participation in knowledge research, and has an end product that shows student success in learning the concept. Below find 3 reviews from my most current research.

I have rated each on a scale of 6 pts.
2pts. each for Overall Design, Ease of Use, and Useage of HOTS (Higher Order Thinking Skills)

Preview of Holes webquest found on zunal.com:
While visually appealing to students with video and pictures from the motion picture by the same title, this quest designed to “broaden students understanding of the novel” falls short. Students are asked to make a copy of a word search and complete, take a multiple choice test then create a test for a peer, and write a short essay from a specific character’s point of view. It fails to require students to work cooperatively. I would not use this quest in my practice as I feel it did not challenge students in their thinking. While, as a writer I like the idea of students writing a point of view essay, no directions were given as to use of materials (paper or word processor). I give this webquest a score of 3. 1 for overall design, 1 for ease of use, and 1 for use of HOTS. (Higher Order Thinking Skills).

Preview of: Improving Reading Comprehension, Fluency, and Accuracy
The title of this webquest gave me hope that it might be beneficial to my students who are struggling in the area of fluency. Aside from practice reading passages, this quest did not meet my expectations. Students have opportunities to practice reading and then show comprehension by completing a multiple choice test to show accuracy. This page was the least appealing visually of the 5 or 6 that I looked at from the zunal webpage. It looked as if this was a cover sheet for a classrooms curriculum. Navigation was difficult causing students to search for the accuracy pages. It made me feel as if a new coat of paint was put over the old textbook activities. I would not use this in my practice. Overall score of 1. 1 for design, 0 for ease of use (difficulty knowing which passage and tests corresponded.) 0 for use of HOTS.

Preview of: Figurative Language Museum
This webquest has it all; students are engaged in cooperative group and partner discussions. Students are given quality sites for research and practice sets to cement their learning. Then students work together to create a product for others to enjoy and learn from, while able to practice their own learning and exhibit knowledge skills in a carousel walk. I loved the story line that draws students into the quest. The colors and graphics were inviting and flowed with the theme of creating museum artifacts. Navigation was smooth and explanations and directions clear. A special teachers page included standards and a timeline for the project. I will definitely use this quest with my students, as we are just now beginning to work on figurative language. I am writing this one in my plan book today! Overall score of 6. 2 for design, 2 for ease of use, and 2 for use of HOTS.
