Create Your Own Web Search

Choose a topic. (make sure it is not offensive to anyone in anyway)
Find three (3) web sites that relate to your topic. Cannot use a wiki page...must be an authoritative source.
Generate 10 questions related to your topic. The answers to these questions must come from the three web sites.
In Word, you will create two documents.
  • The first document is the Scavenger Hunt with the questions AND ANSWERS. Put your name and Scavenger Hunt, and "block" in the header of the document.
  • Key in a title centered on the line.  Feel free to use Word Art.
  • Below the title, enter instructions:  "Use the links below to find the answers to the ten questions:"
  • Below the instructions, enter the three web sites where your answers can be found.
  • You will number your ten questions.
  • Key your first question.  Below the question, copy and paste the answer.  Then copy and paste the URL where the answer came from.
  • You will need to turn on and off the "Numbering" button in the Paragraph Group as you proceed through your questions and answers.
  • Save the document as "Scavenger Hunt Answer Key" in your Word Processing folder.
  • The second document is the Scavenger Hunt WITHOUT THE ANSWERS. Simply delete the answers and related web sites from the first document you created. Add a "Name" line at the top for the person who completes it to write in their name. Be sure that both of these documents are saved in your Word Processing folder on the network.
  • Format the document so it looks nice. You may use graphics, if you wish.  Keep the Scavenger Hunt question sheet to one page.
Print the documents and submit.
