I think there are a few tours in London, you could google it to find out what's available now.]]> 2016-03-29 18:42:36 UTC https://padlet.com/kmacsay/geotech/wish/103118885 It's called mpshoe.participoll.com. you can write the questions out and students can use their tablets or ipads if they have them choose a,b,c, or d. It does not show what each student picked but it shows a percentage so you can see where the class is at. There's also a count so you can tell if everyone is participating. https://padlet.com/kmacsay/geotech/wish/103120824 2016-03-29 18:52:12 UTC https://padlet.com/kmacsay/geotech/wish/103120824 https://padlet.com/kmacsay/geotech/wish/103125820 https://www.geoguessr.com/ Is a great website that uses google maps. It drops you somewhere in the world and you have to guess where you are based upon your surroundings. It gives points based upon how close to the actual place you are. I have used it for writing prompts in my classroom but it would be perfect for a geography classroom. http://quizizz.com/ Is also great. It's very similar to kahoot but it is self paced. ]]> 2016-03-29 19:19:29 UTC https://padlet.com/kmacsay/geotech/wish/103125820
