With the new version of Google Earth, you can now use Google Earth on Chromebooks, which means your students can now do Google Lit Trips on their Chromebooks!
If you are not familiar with them, a Lit Trip plots locations from a novel on Google Earth to create a 3D geographic tour of the story. At each location the Lit Trip can also include annotations, web links, images, videos, activities, and more, all related to that part of the story. This is a great way to put students in the story, helping them see where the events took place, and bring the story to life.
See below for a brief video explaining how to do this, along with written directions and links:
As always feel free to share with others. Take care!
