I love using Google maps to visit anywhere in the world. I want to travel. I have always wanted to travel. Using google maps, I found that I can get a preview of the places that I want to go to. Google maps places you right in the center of wherever you search. For example, if I search the Grand Canyon, I can be right in the center and it will be as if I am there in Arizona.

This is a great tool for the classroom! If I want to take my students to the jungle or rainforest, I can! If I want to take my students to the ocean, I can! If I want to take my students to the mountains, I can! The exploration is endless. We will be able to learn about wildlife and sealife. We will be able to learn about rocks and trees.

Google maps is a field trip at our fingertips. We can go anywhere at any time! No parent signatures needed! I will definitely be using this tool in my classroom!

What do you think? Will you use google maps in your classroom?
