I'm not sure who had more fun -- the teachers or the kids! As the week came to a close, we asked them all to reflect back on what they had learned, and I just can't help but share some of their responses:
I didn't know I could ____ with Google Earth- fly (Matt, 6th grader)

- learn about endangered animals (Aditya, 7th grader)
The coolest place I saw was....- the Space Needle (Jack, 7th grader)

When I'm a grownup, I'll use Google Earth to...- find a place to go on vacation (Nick, 5th grader)
- share global awareness about different countries to other people (Esha, 9th grader)
