Google Earth

Around election time Room 408 got really interested in the history of the presidents.

This led to an interest in the White House...

The kids had lots of questions like, "Are there waiters and waitresses in the White House?" and "Does the President live there?" and "How many rooms are in the White House?"

After reading a book about the White House and elections, we researched in sources for answers to our questions.
We used sources such as Brain Pop, Jr and Pebble Go.
We also used Google Earth for the first time, which the kids loved.
We found the shape of the gardens outside the White House...

We zoomed in...

We found out that we could even go inside for a virtual tour!

We got lots of our questions answered, and we'll be using lots of Google Earth in the future!

What would you look up on Google Earth?
