Google Earth Reflection

Through Google Earth, I learned how to locate and view different places that I have never been before. I also was able to find familiar places like my home in California. I think Google Earth could be a very useful tool for teaching kids about spatial skills and directions. Here is a kmz link to the seven wonders of the world. I think it would apply to teaching kindergarteners because it connects to Standard 3, objective 3 in the Utah Core Curriculum. It would teach them a lot about the facinating world that they live in and give them a way to visit those places vicariously.
