Dr. Isman Grade 5 - GPS

Welcome Dr. Isman Grade 5s.



1. How was learning about latitude and longitude using a GPS different from classroom learning?
2. Did using a GPS help you to understand? How so?
3. Would you recommend an activity like this to others?
4. Why do you think the GPS unit brand is "Magellan"? (Hint: look it up in Google - who was Magellan?)

1.It lets you go outside and explore using the gps devices. And also it lets you get close up to the places other than a globe or a flat map.

I think the brand is Magellan because it is one of the best gps brands and Magellan was a group of investors.

I thought it was fun running around with a camera and a GPS in our hands even though we looked like total nerds. But it was such a good experience I had alot of fun.

Thanks
