This blog has been designed to share fun and engaging websites I have found. As an Educator and a Parent I like to provide opportunities for children to develop learning skills and have fun while developing skills using technology.

I have included resources and ideas which parents can use at home to assist in providing their children with fun and educational activities.

My Culture Quest

3:03 AM Posted In , , , , , Edit This 0 Comments »

My Culture Quest is a fun, interactive site which explores different cultures and countries. You choose a character and then start travelling the world visiting museums and galleries. Each place visited offers information about an artwork or cultural item. Students need to read the information and then answer a multiple choice question correctly in order to collect the item and create their own exhibition.

Once in the game, a world map is provided with highlighted points. Click on the point to travel to the destination. Your character will travel via air balloon.
You are given 12 days to collect as many items as you can. You probably won’t get all the items in this time allowing students to play the game several times without being bored as they explore new places.

One drawback however, there is no point to visit in Australia!

This site provides a great way for children to learn about art, history, countries, cultures, religion and maps. It also encourages the development of comprehension and reading skills. The site allows you to download flash cards with quiz questions to help children remember the information.
