Here is two of my student's presentations on their Google Earth Tour. I hope you enjoy:)

One major goal is to have my students use more technology in the classroom. I think it is important to expose them to the 21st century skills that will be expected of them in the future. My students were able to make Google Earth Tours of a character that they read from our Nonfiction Interactive History Books. There were multiple perspectives that they could have chosen throughout the book! They chose which perspective they connected with the most and then created a tour of where they went as that character and what decisions had to be made along their journey. I was so happy to see how excited my students were while creating their tour! I hope you enjoy their tours as much as they had making them:)
