Get Ready For a WebQuest!

You are about to begin a WebQuest to accompany our book Freak the Mighty by Rodman Philbrick!

To complete the WebQuest, you will put on your reporter hat to investigate the the question: 

How does Max change over the course of the book?
 
As you read the book, you will gather evidence about Max's character traits, and will use this evidence to complete a series of tasks with a partner, as a part of the WebQuest.  Everything that you discover will help you to come up with an answer to the guiding question.  The best part - there is not one right answer!  You might see changes in Max that your classmates did not see, so your response to the question will be unique.
 
Once all of your evidence is gathered, and you have come to a decision about how Max has changed, you will work with your partner to report the findings to the class.  How you choose to report what you discovered is up to you.  You can do a live news report, write a newspaper article, or create a scrapbook to document the changes that you saw.  The project format is up to you, as long as it fully answers the question: How does Max change over the course of the book?
 
Ready to get started?  Your quest is waiting!
