Tutorials and Information || Make your Geography lessons come to life using Google Earth. There are lots of cool and easy things you can do in Google Earth. Your class can go on virtual 3D field trips by "flying" to your destination. When you get there you can go to street level to take a "walking" tour.

 * This week's Awesomest Website || [|Readeez] Learning Disguised as Smiling || My class absolutely LOVE these short and sometimes silly syllable synced videos. We watch them when our brains need a break. They are filled with lots of academic concepts and sheer silliness. Here are some of our favorites:
 * Online Project || [[image:lionstechnology/journey_north.gif caption="Click on the butterfly for more info" link="http://www.learner.org/jnorth/sm/index.html"]] || Teach your students lessons in conservation and ambassadorship by decorating a butterfly and sending it to a class in Mexico to symbolize the monarch butterflies' migration. Children at the monarch sanctuaries will protect your butterfly and you will receive another one in the spring. The project provides ready made lessons, slideshows and videos. Not only will your students learn about migration but they will learn about another culture. ||
