Thing #7

Searching through all of the cool tools was great! I found myself wanting to explore each one for a longer than I should have. There were many of the tools that sparked my interest like...google alerts. I especially like this tool because its a great way to get information quickly without actually searching the topic yourself. At the click of a button you are given many search engines on any particular subject. The other tool I found useful in the classroom was google earth. This is a great way to teach kids about maps. I find it fascinating that you can search a place like Africa and actually view the stadium where the world cup is being held. Thanks to technology places like these are at the touch of our fingertips!
