Week of May 25 - 29 Terrific Technology #7

Students and Caregivers!

Caregivers, I hope you had a chance to check out CommonSense.org in my post from last week. The site can be a bit confusing, but it is so packed with good info, it's worth exploring. Email if you have any questions about it! With so much riding on remote learning, it's really important to keep reinforcing good digital citizenship.


WHAT IS THE INTERNET?
And is it the same as the "Web" or the "World Wide Web?" Yeah...is it? Click HERE or the picture.



SHARING DOCUMENTS AND SLIDESHOWS IN GOOGLE: A review of how to share documents with your teacher and your caregivers. Also a reminder that sharing with other students or friends requires permission from your teacher! CLICK HERE or on the picture.



INTRO TO GOOGLE EARTH: Great program for K-4 and beyond! Some students will remember how to navigate and find places, some are new to Google Earth. There are iPad, iPhone and Android versions as well. On desktops, Google Earth needs the Chrome browser. CLICK HERE or on the picture to the right.




GOOGLE EARTH PART 2: I walk you through some more tools in Google Earth, including Google Earth's new Voyager set of cool places to visit. CLICK HERE or on the picture to the right. 


And of course there is MYSTERY DOUG! This week, a student asks Doug, How Do Bees Make Honey? I've been seeing a lot of bees lately, so this seemed like a good pick!
