Geo Tools & Google Classroom

Google Earth

Find the image/location/street view you want your class to see.
Click the "Share" button in Google Earth and select Classroom.

Your selected Earth imagery is automatically attached onto your assignment/question/post for your students to view and interact with.

If students "Attach from Drive" a My Map onto a Google Classroom assignment, it automagically shares it with the teacher.
Students create map, you get to view it.
If students work collaboratively on the map, only the OWNER of the map can turn it in, so make sure the students' names are all on it

You can make My Map Templates!
Make your My Map where "Anyone with the link can view", Click here to view an example.
Place instructions on your My Map as to what you want your students to do (Continue drawing placemarks, finding angles, determining distances, etc).
Attach the link to your "My Map" as a Resource onto your Google Classroom assignment.
Students open up the My Map, press the "Three Dots", and then "Make a Copy"
Boomshakalaka: they now have a copy of your template and can submit their work.
