A Thanksgiving Timeline Via Google Earth

UPDATE 11/2/2020: Here is a link to over 45 Thanksgiving activities you can use in your classroom.

Laura Moore, one of our NEISD technology specialists, created this awesome Google Earth tour that incorporates 7 different placemarks with online activities related to Thanksgiving.  If you are not a teacher in our district, you will need to create a slightly different set of directions for accessing the .kmz file for your students, but the file is included on Laura’s blog post, along with several other Thanksgiving links.

This tour took a lot of work to create, and I think that it is a rich, multi-layered resource that students will thoroughly enjoy.  Thanks, Laura!
