Technically Trying

UPDATE: I've downloaded Frankenstein! To get any of the Lit Trips, you first have to make sure you are registered. Then you look up the title you want to have to make sure its available in their resources. Finally, you go to the GLT Shop, fill in your email and the title of the Lit Trip you'd like to use and then submit the form. They will email you a file to download and open in Google Earth. There are some really cool discussion starters on the pages when you go between locations that could help guide classroom discussions or to help study for a test. Each page of this particular trip also includes quotes directly from the book that correlate with the location being shown on the map. The table of contents allows you to jump from spot to spot without having to load each one individually. So if you're talking about a particular chapter, you can go directly to that location bookmark to show where your character is located. Overall I really like this little program and it see...

 I moved on from four years in the preschool classroom to the current Technology Coordinator position. I will be working closely with Mrs. Thoenen as we go through the school year together. I plan on learning as much as I can to help the staff have an easy and successful school year. When I find new and interesting technology related articles, I may post them here. I will also talk about any new tech additions to the school as they come around. I am very excited to be in this new position and I look forward to making the teacher's jobs easier! As much as they can be anyways... Here's to new beginnings!
