3. Try to translate following quotations:
  • All morons hate it when you call them a moron.
  • Boy, when you’re dead, they fix you up.   
  • Almost every time somebody gives me a present, it enda up making me sad.

Evaluating WebQuests!!!

My topic was to evaluate some WebQuests!
Best of all I liked WebQuest "We all scream for Ice Cream"
http://questgarden.com/72/16/0/081106092511/
This Webquest was interesting for me because I'm a real sweet tooth! The process of making Ice Cream is rather interesting and exciting. After this webquest I became a real homemade Ice Cream expert!
The second WebQuest I also liked was "Where is my hero?"
http://questgarden.com/72/60/1/081205162959/index.htm
This WebQuest is very cognitive. From this WebQuest I got known  many interesting facts about famous people such as George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Barack Obama, Pocahontas, Albert Einstein and others. They are real heroes!
 Least of all I liked  WebQuest "Grow School Greena"
http://questgarden.com/79/09/6/090326165128/index.htm
This WebQuest was not interesting for me, because I don't like gardening at all. The process of growing vegetables was not fascinating for me!
I also didn't like "Ancient Egupt WebQuest"
http://www.fcps.edu/KingsParkES/technology/webquests/Egypt/index.htm
I like Egyptian ancient culture, but this WebQuest was too scientific and intricate!
My second topic was to say "What do best and worst mean to you?"
Best for me is - interesting and easy information,educational aspect of the topic and exciting process of  work!
Worst for me is- boring, exhausting information with many terms!
