A Learning Session isn't an online quiz: it's an effective, step by step process where you hear words and phrases, type them, and read them. The software re-teaches you exactly what you need when you need it, and moves ahead when you're ready. When you've learned a word, the site stops "rewording" it, so the site grows with you as you learn! Learn more about Learning Sessions.

"Take a Schoolcation" Resources (Using Google Arts & Culture)

# data[].attributes.body
Google doc shares ideas for different ways of using Google Arts & Culture resources in the classroom including having kids take a "virtual field trip."

I was thinking this could be interesting from a family engagement lens, having kids and families explore a place or cultural site together that they've never been to and share back with teacher.

Take a Schoolcation:Interactive Virtual Field Trips with Google Arts and Culture

# data[].attributes.body
Description: A website with resources to help students and teachers create a VR tour

Need to explore further, but I'd probably recommend this to social studies/science teachers because I think it could support some cool project-based learning in those subjects

It gives some good free tools that seem easy to use.
