students work on computers

Using the computer, fourth-graders at Pieter B. Coeymans are learning how to navigate through countries and cities all over the globe and report on what they see. Mrs. Piscoitta and Ms. Meyer are teaching students how to use Google Earth and Voyager to conduct their research around the world.

Students will compare their journey with paper maps to see the similarities and differences. Their reports will also include the population number from each new location, the recorded elevation, favorite foods from the area and more.
