Q2 Thrill Rides Favorites
Step One
1. Virtually visit the Cedar Point Amusement Park.
2. Explore the list of rides (roller coasters and/or thrill rides) and select five you would like to ride.
3. Use a graphic organizer (Canva, Google Slides, Microsoft PowerPoint, or another type), list them separately by name, and include the thrill level. You might want to include a small image of your favorite ones.

4. Create a screenshot (image capture) of your graphic organizer.
5. Save it to your File Space. You may want to add it to your digital portfolio.
6. Check with your teacher about doing a creative follow-up activity.
Some suggestions: create a poster or advertisement of favorite rides, plan a trip to Cedar Point and include attractions, games, and rides, create a budget for a trip to an amusement park, and have a class vote on the best one.
