A Stroll through England with Google!
Flashback post from 2012-2013 School Year.
Two of the classrooms which we are blogging with are located in the United Kingdom so we took this opportunity to expand our students worlds. We used Google Maps to look at satellite and street views to take a walk through the city, discussed the difference in currency, which continent they are located on, the time zone and distance in miles from our school. I am including some of the websites that we used to explore the homes of our new friends.
Continent- http://www.softschools.com/social_studies/continents/map.jsp,http://www.nationsonline.org/oneworld/continents_map.htm
How far is it?- http://www.distancefromto.net/
What time is it there?-http://www.worldtimezone.com
