I love the Google search engine but what I also like about Google is the other web tools available at the site. Google translator will be a great tool to use in the classroom. It has 66 different languages that it will translate to. So if I have a student in my class that speaks little or no English, this is a great way to communicate. As a class we can get on Google translate and use it to learn words in different languages or to help communicate with our pin pals in other countries.
I also like Google calendar. I set up an account to use it and it will synch the events on your mobile devices with your calendar on Google. Pop ups will appear online to remind you of events that will be taking place. Using Google calendar, you are able to share it with family member and friends. I am eager to use this tool in my classroom. This is a great way to keep parents posted on events that will be taking place in both the classroom and the school.
