For some inspiration on this subject take a look at Monet Was Here on Google Arts & & Culture.

Later this week Im performing an online expert development workshop about Google Earth and Maps. Among my goals for the workshop is to assist participants establish concepts for utilizing Google Earth and Google Maps for more than just geography and history lessons. To that end Ive put together a list of ideas and resources for utilizing Google Earth and Google Maps in multiple disciplines.
Language ArtsGoogle Lit Trips is most likely the most popular example of using Google Earth in the context of language arts. Google Lit Trips are Google Earth trips based on books and authors. In Google Earth and on Googles My Maps services your students can develop their own trips highlighting crucial locations in a book or crucial places in the life of an author.
ScienceGoogle Earth offers a fantastic way for trainees to check out fascinating geological landmarks in 3D. Using the timeslider in the desktop version of Google Earth can reveal trainees the modifications in a landscape due to disintegration and other natural and manufactured forces.
There is no shortage of lesson plans including Google Earth available online. A couple that I advise looking at are Rich Treves flooding and volcano lessons and Whats a Watershed developed at the Science Education Resource Center at Carleton College.
MathFor K-5 classrooms there is most likely no better location to begin than on Tom Barretts Maths Maps site. There you will find brief, Google Maps-based activities that require trainees to carry out measurements and use arithmetic to answer questions. The activities represent an excellent mix of mathematics and geography.
You will desire to explore Real World Math if you have middle school or high school students. On Real World Math you will discover lesson strategies that make use of Google Earth for teaching the ideas used in calculating volume of solids, timezones, and rocketry..
Physical EducationPerhaps my favorite usage of Googles My Maps is for planning safe walking, treking, and cycling paths. You can also utilize Google Earth to help trainees comprehend how elevation modification alters the speed at which routes are finished.
ArtBy using Googles My Maps tools or the desktop variation of Google Earth, trainees can map the areas of where a piece of regional art is housed, where it was developed, and the locations that influenced the artist. Each placemark on a trainees map could consist of a photo of the art work, an image of the artist, and or a video about the art and artist. To offer a total picture a student can include text and links to more details about the art and artist.

One of my objectives for the workshop is to help individuals establish ideas for utilizing Google Earth and Google Maps for more than simply geography and history lessons. To that end Ive put together a short list of ideas and resources for utilizing Google Earth and Google Maps in numerous subject locations.
In Google Earth and on Googles My Maps services your trainees can produce their own tours highlighting essential places in a book or essential locations in the life of an author.
