Teacher Notes • The teacher or a parent volunteer will need to read the WebQuest to the students. • The teacher puts the class in groups of two and assigns the jobs. • Copy the worksheets for the students. Use a copy machine if you want all pictures to be colored by the students. • Adaptation: Instead of having the students do numerals 0-9, you can have them do 0-5. Use this worksheet instead.
