What I Learned

This is the post for April 7th, 2010-Armani and Erika's Project

Armani and Erika's project was about Google Earth. I never hard of Google Earth before they presented it to me. Google Earth is basically a tool in which you could use to see the earth in 3-D. It shows the earth as it is seen in space and gives you the oppurtunity to do things like look for different places on Earth. You can find places like your house, your school, and/or your country. There are many different things that can be done on Google Earth, these are just a few. You can also look for things like y0ur zodiac sign star.

Armani and Erika showed us how Google Earth worked and it gave me these following idea to use in a 3rd grade Science class:

Lesson Plan 1- Students will able to learn how Google Earth can help them in this Science class.
Lesson Plan 2- Students will be able to locate things like their homes, neighborhood police and fire stations.

These ideas will both introduce Google Earth students using hands-on activities and give them another way to learn where curtain things are on Earth.
