Strategies

The strategy I read about was using GPS for a history lesson in a 5th grade class. For a 5th grade class I feel this would be a great lesson. They would jump all over it like a happy monkey. On the high school level this would be a little more complicated. It would work but would have to make it very interesting and attention grabbing. In a history lesson for high school you could make it a group assignment on the state of West Virginia or their home town, and plot locations that can be looked up online or with a phone or GPS and then have them research the location at that point. I had initially thought it would not work on the high school level but with more thought it would be fun and interesting.
