WQ Ideas

I would like to do a WebQuest on CST Prep. I have created this idea from countless complaints from students that "they just don't understand CST questions and they think it is sooooo boring." So I figured I could create vocabulary links explaing CST questions, video links that show an unusual animal name mentioned as a character in a short story, links to pictures of vocabulary words, and so on and so forth. I would like to create it in a treasure hunt manner or a scavenger hunt manner. I have seen a few of these webquest done and I know my students like the treasure hunt games provided at eduplace.com via HM curriculum. CST is such a lengthy and can be a terrible experience for students and I think incorporating technology into this process would be great!
