Google Expeditions is an app that allows you to take a "virtual field trip" to explore all kinds of places around the world. From museums to shipwrecks to mountain tops, the possibilities are endless! This week my kinders were studying Dinosaurs. They kept mentioning about how they wanted to be able to see real dinosaur bones and fossils. I found quite a few museums with dinosaur exhibits, just by typing in dinosaurs. The kiddos loved interacting with the 365 degree camera that is available on the app. We then identified and labeled the dinosaurs based on their characteristics. This led to so many more questions and discoveries! What else can you use Google Expeditions for? -Explore underwater scenes -Explore Antarctica during Arctic animal week -Homes of the presidents -Explore mountains -explore inside the human body -explore the moon and so much more!
