In the classroom we will be using Google Earth to look at landforms and terrain from all across the world. This program will allow us to visit volcanoes in Japan, and the Grand Canyon in Arizona - all from the safety of our classroom! I encourage you to download this program at home and take a look at all there is to see. Google Earth is free to download. Just visit the following site (http://earth.google.com) for more information.
