Puzzle Number One

American History GT Students

Welcome to your latest challenge

A class web site can be a creative way of getting students excited about a subject, keeping them up to date on assignments, and providing them with valuable online resources. Because a class site should be engaging, I'll present information that makes the subject interesting and fun, such as brain teasers or polls about current events. Of course, I'll want to include plenty of links so students can explore a wealth of ideas on the web.

Here are examples of the content I might include.

Events and Announcements
Updated 3/20/00

Don't forget, we're taking a trip to the Museum of Fine Arts on March 22. You won't need to bring a lunch, but you must have your permission slip signed and with you when you get on the bus.

Assignment 4 is not due until April 3 (instead of March 31).

Find The Treasure

Inspired by the movie National Treasure, I decided to challenge you guys to a local history treasure hunt.  You will be solving riddles, puzzles, and following clues based on Hondo, Quihi, and D'Hanis history to find a treasure.  Your treasure map will take you to historical markers in the Hondo area.  Have fun!
