I really enjoyed this activity because it allows the reader to visualize and make relevant the travels of a real family! It makes me want to create a 'google lit trip'!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great way to incorporate crossover learning activities, as you mentioned in your slideshow/powerpoint, such as map reading, math skills, and geography literacy. Great idea!
