I use these at the beginning of my social studies units to help generate interest in the area we will be studying. I usually upload the assignment into Google Classroom, then let them start exploring. Most of the info is right there in Google Earth, but occasionally, they may need to use additional internet resources to learn more. Happy exploring!

About the store
Experience
I have been teaching 6th grade for four years, and I absolutely love it! My subject areas include science and social studies, and I am also currently the alternative education teacher for our campus, which means I teach all four core subjects daily.
Teaching style
I enjoy teaching in a student-centered classroom. I rarely lecture or give notes - I love watching my students learn by researching, experimenting, and having hands-on experiences with labs, webquests, projects and crafts.
My own education history
Texas A&M University - Class of '05. Gig 'em Ags!
Additional biographical information
I'm late to the teaching profession, but I feel like my life experiences have given me an advantage in the classroom. Before getting my teaching certification, I worked with an insurance company to set up communications and develop experimental projects for roof inspections after catastrophic weather events. After that, I worked as an investigator, specializing in narcotics and family violence. I also taught a kindergarten Sunday school class for 12 years, and traveled the world with my friends. Who knows what I'll end up getting into next!
