GPS and Geocaching WebQuest

I'm so excited to get started with geocaching again. This week, I am reintroducing my 3rd graders to the sport. This class of 3rd graders learned about geocaching through the travel bugs we released last year. They also spent some time geocaching on our campus. But their knowledge of GPS and how it works is superficial. I have created this quick WebQuest to give students a history about GPS and how it works. They will also review important vocabulary related to GPS and geocaching. Finally, they will be creating a VoiceThread to share what they have learned with other teachers and students.
