Kids of the 90's

1999
Kids of the 90's was created by the use of survey. Students from 4th, 5th, and 6th grade were surveyed to find out how they spend their time after school, the sports they may be involved in, the influence TV may have upon them, and what their favorites are. This was done to form a base line. It is our hope, that we will find out about other students/kids outside our community, other than what we see on the television sitcoms. We hope to find out what the typical student that is participating in ThinkQuest Junior, is like. Once we complied and graphed the St.Croix Falls information, we researched the "winning" results and put that information on our pages. We created surveys for input from students outside of SCF. We also hope to have students pick a topic, research it, and submit it to us. If accepted we will add it to our page. We want kids to interact with our questions and conclusions. We may find that the "rest of the world" is like us. We may find that kids are not like they are portrayed on television. We do know that often times kids have favorites and don't really have any information to base their thinking upon. We hope that students will learn knew and interesting things about themselves and others!
