What sparks your curiosity? Are you supporting your students’ inquisitive minds? No matter the grade you teach or the academic focus of your classroom, the Quest for Curiosity is a great challenge that will engage your students in a journey that will help them harness the skills needed to shine in the 21st century.
Discovery Education’s Quest for Curiosity is a teacher-led, student-focused activity allowing your students to use their individual Discovery Education STREAMING student accounts. Students will navigate Discovery Education STREAMING digital media resources and find the answers to 10 questions spanning core curricular areas. Along this path they will be exposed to relevant, engaging content tied to your state standards and the common core standards.
Registration is open from now until March 20, 2011! Educators who register by March 20, 2011 will gain access to the Quest for Curiosity on March 21, 2011 and may begin integrating the questions in their classroom.
Prizes will be awarded to the first twenty-five participants with accurate responses for all questions on their Quest for Curiosity submission. Five grand prize winners will receive a Flipcam and 30 Discovery Education student backpacks. 20 additional educator prizes, consisting of a classroom set of 30 Discovery Education student backpacks, will be awarded to the next 20 educators who submit an entry with 100% accuracy on or before April 15, 2011.
Mark your calendars! We will be announcing the Quest for Curiosity winners at the DEN Spring Virtual Conference on April 30, 2011. Stay tuned for more details on the virtual conference!
