Google Maps and Place of Birth

Grades: 3rd Grade, 1st Grade, 2nd Grade
Subjects: Geography

Student Instructions

We are going to do a little research to find out how far it is from where we live NOW to where we were born. You first need to know where you were born and make sure you know how to spell it. You might need to ask a grown up. And then ask Google maps how many kilometers there are between those two places. To do this, you click in the search bar and type "how far is it to..." and then enter the name of the place you were born. I have made a short video showing you how I did it. Click on it to follow along and then see if you can try it! Add a response to get a link that takes you to Google Maps.
