Students in fifth grade worked in pairs to research a “Wonder of the World.”  The students then wrote a paragraph about their Wonder of the World and placed it in Google Earth using the placemark feature.  The placemarks were combined by class to create a Google Earth Tour.

You must have Google Earth installed on your computer for the links below to work.  You can download Google Earth for free (students, please check with your parents before downloading anything).

Wonders of the World Tours

Ms. Fabre’s Class Tour

Ms. Thompson’s Class Tour

Mrs. Westendorf’s Class Tour

Note: The tours can be stopped to view the student paragraphs by clicking on the placemarks. (The placemarks look like pushpins.)
