So What exactly are Google Lit Trips?
The
short version is simple. Google Lit Trips are free downloadable files
that mark the journeys of characters from famous literature on the
surface of Google Earth. At each location along the journey there are
placemarks with pop-up windows containing a variety of resources
including relevant media, thought provoking discussion starters, and
links to supplementary information about “real world” references made in
that particular portion of the story.
The
focus is on creating engaging and relevant literary experiences for
students. I like to say Google Lit Trips “3-dimensionalize” the reading
experience by placing readers “inside the story” traveling alongside the
characters; looking through the windshield of that old jalopy in The Grapes of Wrath or waddling alongside Mr. and Mrs. Mallard’s duckling family in Make Way for Ducklings.
