- BEOWULF Webquest - using the web resources listed (or others you can find) locate the information that answers the questions. The link below will take you to an electronic copy of the webquest ... the printed copy you will write on is on top of the Chromebook cart. You will have to staple the packet (3 sheets, front and back .. pages 1-6 .. make sure you have them all!)
Be sure to answer the questions on the paper provided - use the electronic copy to click on the links so you don't have to type them. In the event that some of the links are broken or stop working (which happens from time to time with these things), we will find and provide an alternate link for the class as necessary.
