Google Lit Trips
Explore Books with Google Lit Trips
Explore books in a different way with your students. Google Lit Trips allow students to see where things took place in the literature they are reading. They can see images, videos, time lines, maps and text in relation to where they took place in the world and in the book. If that's not enough, your students can collaborate to create their very own Google Lit trips!!
