Map Skills Web Quest and Excel Practice: Technology Lesson

Students use Microsoft Excel and selected websites to learn and apply information about the maps. They are able to study social studies while practicing saving documents, formatting cells, copy and paste functions, fill color, grid lines, clip art and clicking a link from a PDF or word document.

I usually project the document for the students to see as I go over each step. To easily access the links and have the directions at the children's fingertips, I also open the document on each screen and minimize it until I have introduced the lesson.
