One of the tools that immediately caught my attention was the Google Calendar. I immediately started a personal and professional calendar. I plan to invite the teachers and administrators to my professional calendar, so that all will know when I will be available for them in the library.
I also played arounf a lot with the Google Earth tool. This tool would be awesome in the classroom to teach Geography. Also the Google Sky tool would be great for teaching astronomy.
Fun Stuff!

The calendar is popular with all of us, I think! I had never used it before, but several librarians keep their library schedules on it, and I think it is a great idea. Google Earth is just too much fun. once I get started on it, I find it hard to stop!
The one thing to remember with Google Earth is that the picture isn't "real to time". It could be several months-years old. It is still cool to see what is around you. I think the kids will just be amazed that you can see everything from space! :)
