pjcerullo May 30 @ 9:08 PM EDT

A1: I have only used Google-maps for 1 project this year; one concerning mapping a trip from NYC to LA. #6thchat

A1 I've heard about using google maps in the classroom, but I'm not sure exactly how to! #6thchat

If you are a G-Suite for Ed school, Ss now have access to My Maps, where they can plot points onto map and add descriptions. #6thchat

Great idea. I teach these concepts too. #6thchat

In reply to @mrskochheiser

DrBrianCook May 30 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A2: This feature is new to me. How is everyone used it? Any examples? #6thchat

Mr_Lisek May 30 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A2: We used it in #sstlap to plot points we visited on trips and other criteria. Added several layers/colors to keep organized. #6thchat

lorenabaker27 May 30 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A2- My maps? This is new to me. Excited to hear how to use it! #6thchat

#6thchat I created a my maps for a "get to know the teacher" places that I've lived, schools, ect.

rnowens May 30 @ 9:15 PM EDT

Just found out Google Maps is blocked through my school domain. Hmmm #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:15 PM EDT

Since many of you haven't used some of maps or MyMaps too much; check out this @padlet w/links and ideas https://t.co/voQ0CmEqeZ #6thchat

Struggling to multi-task tonight. Too many typos I don't catch until after I send the tweet! #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:16 PM EDT

#6thchat forgot hashtag

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:13 PM EDT

A2 Had Ss use MyMaps, select a country & add pins w/photos & info related to 5 themes of geo; here's example w/USA https://t.co/I07Fpi9kh8

pjcerullo May 30 @ 9:16 PM EDT

Very cool. I had my Ss book a mode of transportation and calculate the total for the trip. Challenged to make it work in 9 days. #6thchat

In reply to @Stanton_Lit

Mr_Lisek May 30 @ 9:17 PM EDT

Give the Ss time to play with all of the tools (street view esp.) before giving the task. They will get more comfortable w/ tools. #6thchat

In reply to @pjcerullo

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:18 PM EDT

You are forgiven for next 45 min on typos! #6thchat

In reply to @Mr_Lisek

lorenabaker27 May 30 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@mrskochheiser Is my maps a feature on computer or can it be used on iPad? #6thchat

rnowens May 30 @ 9:18 PM EDT

A3) Follow a character on their journey; write about the setting and how it affects the character's decisions, etc. #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:19 PM EDT

A3) Another idea: have Ss write a poem or Haiku about a place and create a MyMaps with pins that include poem text, photo #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:19 PM EDT

A3) Have Ss use Google Maps Street View to explore a setting from a book, or to write a description about a place. #6thchat

Ms_Mielke May 30 @ 9:19 PM EDT

#6thchat - I used https://t.co/6AqAXsNn00 to have them write about a place they were exploring.

SamReisman93 May 30 @ 9:19 PM EDT

A3: Reading- map out a character's journey or a specific place visited in a novel. Writing- write a story about how you get around #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:19 PM EDT

Ooo...love this! Thanks for this idea! #6thchat

In reply to @Ms_Mielke

Mr_Lisek May 30 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A3: Great way for Ss to become more familiar w/setting in non-fiction/info texts. Provides greater perspective about content. #6thchat

Stanton_Lit May 30 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A3) Ss could plot different points on Google Maps and add a narrative to go with each setting. #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:18 PM EDT

Question 3 is on the slide! #6thchat

TrishKing6 May 30 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A3. I'm imagining mapping as a way of story telling. Following a character, describing a setting \. #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:18 PM EDT

Question 3 is on the slide! #6thchat

pjcerullo May 30 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A3: ELA Ts could use it as a intro on a setting in a novel, tracking a character's journey, or exploring the home of the author. #6thchat

MrTravisDrake May 30 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A3 keeping stories in context... Doll Bones, Ohio River cities, Hatchet, the approximate flight path, Hoot, Everglades #6thchat

TrishKing6 May 30 @ 9:21 PM EDT

rolandteach May 30 @ 9:22 PM EDT

A3; Setting-visit the different places in a novel. Used it with our last novel and took students to Flint, Michigan. #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:22 PM EDT

Not sure. I know you can view MyMaps on iPad. I don't have one so you may need to investigate. It's a google product? #6thchat

In reply to @MrTravisDrake

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A4) Sorry for typo in question. Use Google Maps for measurements, compare heights of mountains, locate origins of rock types #6thchat

SamReisman93 May 30 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A4: Plan a trip and budget the amount it would cost to travel, lodge, and entertainment on trip #6thchat

Ms_Mielke May 30 @ 9:25 PM EDT

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:26 PM EDT

In my backyard! Did you do the Watsons Go to Birmingham? #6thchat

In reply to @rolandteach

MrTravisDrake May 30 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A4 Most Ss don't have a handle on distances... When you say it's 240 miles, they can't picture what is 240 miles from them. #6thchat

HowardKiyuna May 30 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A4: IMO Ss w/math challenges have more grit when using numbers in interesting context. Trying to plan sports facility tour lesson. #6thchat

pjcerullo May 30 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A4: Calculating the area and perimeter of different areas. #6thchat

pjcerullo May 30 @ 9:27 PM EDT

A4: Or measuring distance from one location to another. #6thchat

Mr_Lisek May 30 @ 9:28 PM EDT

A4.1: Math - Plot 3 points on the map and measure the total distance/length of the sides. Use formula to find dist of hypotenuse. #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:28 PM EDT

Wow...great idea! #6thchat

In reply to @Mr_Lisek

Mr_Lisek May 30 @ 9:29 PM EDT

#6thchat A4 Science, street view of alternative energy locations

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:31 PM EDT

A6) We just read a story about immigration through Ellis Island. Explore New York sites via Street View #6thchat

Ms_Mielke May 30 @ 9:31 PM EDT

A5: I use that to build interest / understanding, but also use #Googleexpeditions to really get students into the touring. #6thchat

TrishKing6 May 30 @ 9:32 PM EDT

A5. It seems like this would a great way to find answers or check for accuracy of students 1st impressions of a city or a place. #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:30 PM EDT

Question 5 is on the slide! #6thchat

amysoupy May 30 @ 9:32 PM EDT

My 4thgr Ss get on Gmaps to look at places they've only heard of. Seeing things up close makes it interesting they're more invested #6thchat

rnowens May 30 @ 9:32 PM EDT

A6) I think street view will give students much needed background information before and during reading #6thchat

Stanton_Lit May 30 @ 9:32 PM EDT

A5 Street View is a great way to expose Ss to areas they would normally never see or have access to. #6thchat

SamReisman93 May 30 @ 9:32 PM EDT

A5: Prior to reading a novel, explore the sites and location of the story; use mymaps to set notes that can relate to the story #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:32 PM EDT

Just added it to the @padlet! Feel free to add other links there if you like! #6thchat

In reply to @Ms_Mielke, @padlet

lorenabaker27 May 30 @ 9:33 PM EDT

A6- Ss able to visit the Great Wall of a China, Roman Collisuem, pyramids in Egypt, so many places to build background knowledge #6thchat

MrTravisDrake May 30 @ 9:33 PM EDT

#6thchat A5 some Ss don't have schema of going to the beach, street view A1A of your favorite beach.

amysoupy May 30 @ 9:33 PM EDT

Sorry. I keep forgetting my A:1, A:2. I'm a bit out of practice. #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:34 PM EDT

Absolutely! Would love to do that! #6thchat

In reply to @rolandteach

BlainlySpoken May 30 @ 9:34 PM EDT

A4: Build a word problem about traveling Pt A to Pt B and have Ss calculate distance, cheapest Rte (tolls vs bus) #6thchat

Mr_Lisek May 30 @ 9:34 PM EDT

So, if you search for My Maps on Google, you can use the online version. There is an app, but I cannot tell if it's 2nd party. #6thchat

In reply to @Mr_Lisek, @lorenabaker27

Mr_Lisek May 30 @ 9:36 PM EDT

A5: Street view takes the abstract idea of a place and makes it more real for Ss. It allows for intro to place before study. #6thchat

Stanton_Lit May 30 @ 9:36 PM EDT

A6) Not yet, but checking it out #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator May 30 @ 9:37 PM EDT

A6) I have used Google Cultural Institute to inspire Ss in writing, especially descriptive and figurative language #6thchat

A6: I tried this last year during Lit Circles. Ss read historical fic and then explored cultural inst. to find stuff from setting #6thchat

Mr_Lisek May 30 @ 9:37 PM EDT

A6: Cultural Institute is a tool I've never heard of until now. If I disappear from #6thchat it's because I'm exploring...
