Description
Presidents Webquest (Washington to Biden)
Students will gain basic knowledge about the Presidents by completing an internet-based worksheet. The President webquest uses the following great website.
http://www.ducksters.com/biography/uspresidents/
My students enjoy learning new facts about the Presidents from the website. I usually use this activity as a review or introduction activity for my middle school students and it takes at least one class period for students to cover each time period. High school students usually take less time to finish the webquest. Feel free to modify this activity if needed to fit the needs of your students. I do not include an answer key, but the answers are easy to find in the website for each president.
The following questions are covered are in the webquest.
President:
Vice President:
Political Party:
Age at Inauguration:
What state was this President born in:
What year did this President die:
Nickname:
What is this President most known for:

The webquest covers all of the Presidents from Washington to Biden. The webquest is 39 pages long and broken up into 9 chronological parts. Word and PDF versions are included.
