I had the hardest time with this assignment out of all of them. I had never used Google Maps before and I didn't realize what it was capable of. For this assignment I created a tour of the southern island of New Zealand. My class recently became epals with a class from New Zealand and many students did not know where New Zealand was located. The tour I created shows them the city the kids are from, where their school is and a few other areas that looked scenic around their school.

Hi Lisa,
ReplyDeleteI, also, am finding this the hardest assignment. So I went to yours to see what you have done. Nice idea - it was fun to "tour". I'll keep working.

Thanks for being the "first". I also was having trouble trying to do this assignment. I have 2nd graders and was trying to decide how I could use this with them. It was nice to see what you have done. I thought it was cool. Now, back to the drawing board for me :)
ReplyDeleteGreat job Lisa! Congrats on completing all 11 Things. You are a leader in technology integration. I looking forward to working with you in the future. You will receive your flash drive soon and I will keep you posted on the drawing for the Flip video cameras.
ReplyDeleteI had the same problem, Pam. I don't teach social studies, so I was having a hard time thimking of something to create a tour of.
ReplyDeleteNeat map Lisa. A visual is a wonderful tool for the kids to get a feel for who they are 'epaling'. Dawn
