Lit Trips with Google Earth Now on Chromebooks
Until now, Google Lit Trips were only available through a traditional computer. They can now be used on Chromebooks along with the new Google Earth. What is a Lit Trip? These are downloadable files that mark the journey of characters from literature on the surface of Google Earth. Students can view and click on description boxes that may contain text, links, and activities related to the book. You must download a file and then upload to Google Earth to view. If you need assistance, please let me know! There are Lit Trips suitable for all grades. The one pictured above is from A Long Walk to Water.
