Teachers Teaching Teachers#15 - Sharing Stories with Mapping

Where have you been this summer? What places remind you of events when you see them on a map? What spots hold special memories and why?

Join us to share ways that we have and that we are planning to use Google maps or mapping in our schools. How do our newest technologies encourage us to expand our use and study of mapping in the classroom and in the digital story room?
