Google is offering a lot of FREE services that may be incorporated into your classroom. The site; Google for Educators, offers GMail(free email), GoogleEarth, BookSearch(can access full text to many books), Google Calendar(put family events in one spot for all to access), SketchUP(designed for architects to help them design buildings, but kids make 3D models), Picasa(photo sharing, editing, searching on web-NOT FOR MACINTOSH, PC ONLY), a personalized webpage if you need a place to post one. Fortunately our school district provides that service for us to use for our classes. If you know of someone who needs these tools, pass on this link.
