Google Lit Trips Posted on October 15th, 2014 by

At Geofest I was able to attend a speaker on geographic inquiry and spatial thinking. The speaker was named Jessica Winkelaar from the MN Center of Social Studies Education and she was very excited to be talking to my group. She brought a ton of great resources and gave us all mini inflatable globes! One of the sources she talked about was the website googlelittrips.com. Google Lit Trips connect a variety of K-12 books to their geographical location on Google Earth. This is one of the many ways to integrate geography in to a curriculum that may not have time for it initially. Below is the link!
