This engaging Arctic Tundra WebQuest will foster collaboration among your students. They can work with partners (I find students are most engaged this way) to find out about the arctic tundra as you act as the facilitator. This is a great activity to do in the winter to see how plants and animals that live in the cold all year long survive!
