Google Earth is a great way to get your kids excited about geography. It also gives them a greater perspective of where certain points on a map are in relation to one another. Google Earth 5 now offers the option to record your voice when creating a tour. The video below consists of a teacher modeled lesson I created to highlight where each of the European explorers traveled during their expeditions (SOL 4a). This project was created using placemarks, overlays, images, and the built in audio recorder in Google Earth.
