Menus, Maps, and Broadcasts - The Week in ReviewGood morning from western Maine where the warm weather is supposed to returned after a couple of cold and rainy days. We're planning to have fun enjoying the warm weather with a trip to Storyland! My kids love going there because of all of the kid-friendly rides. I love going there because it reminds me of happy childhood memories and I love watching my kids have fun making memories of their own. How much fun do we have there? My five-year-old yelled, "I'm living my best life!" while riding a rollercoaster at Storyland last summer. I hope that you have something as equally fun to do this weekend. These were the week's most popular posts: 1. Add Dropdown Menus Into Sentences In Google Docs 2. New Google Docs Features You Might Have Missed 3. An Interactive Map of the Roman Empire 4. A Cool Lesson for a Hot Spring Day - How the Popsicle Was Invented 5. The National Archives to Host Online Professional Development This Summer 6. TARA - A Planning Tool for New and Veteran Teachers 7. Broadcast Google Slides Directly to Your Students' Computers Webinars for Your School I conduct professional development webinars throughout the year. I'll host a free one-hour webinar for any school or group that purchases ten or more copies of 50 Tech Tuesday Tips. Other Places to Follow Me:
Five Google Earth Activities to Get Kids Interested in the OutdoorsIn last week’s Week in Review I mentioned a new book titled Outdoor Kids in an Inside World.

As I was reading through those ideas it struck me that many could be done or be aided by the use of Google Earth. Inspired by Steven Rinella’s Outdoor Kids in an Inside World, here are five Google Earth activities that you can do to get kids interested in learning about the world around them.
