We learn about Ancient Civilizations, so I can use Google Earth to show them 3-D images of the Ancient Egyptian Great Pyramid and the Great Wall of China.

But simply "flying" over different regions gives them a huge visual perspective of the area; often contrasting it with our southeastern U.S. topography!]]> 2017-04-19 22:23:40 UTC https://padlet.com/lpowers/googleearth/wish/167145030 https://padlet.com/lpowers/googleearth/wish/167145031 This is great for seeing where composers wrote their famous pieces. This is where Bach composed a lot of his famous organ music.
