We’ve been looking at maps and our inside windows are covered in them.

Very exciting news!
In a comment on our post Networking, John Johnstone showed us a map of some of his classes network using http://earth.google.com/ 
He also asked for a photo to put us on his network map. We voted on this one.

Mr Johnstone also said he needed our latitude and longitude so here it is.

Hi Al and the miniLegends,

I would like to thank you all for including me in on your exciting set up your blogs morning last Wednesday (23/5/07). It was a fun morning and provided me with lots of good material for my assignment and my life long learning for ICT in education.

Your Google Earth map of the school helped me to find your classroom! It is amazing software to use isn’t it!

Thank you to those students I interviewed too-Carlee and Jessica K and Al Upton of course! Thanks to the boy that did the little dance too even when his logging in wasn’t working…I’m sorry I forgot your name!

I am in the process of setting up my own blog thanks to your inspiration! I might put my podcast on that-we’ll see. Would you like me to send you your interviews or post them on my blog?

Kind regards,
Kate T
Primary teacher and Masters of Ed student
