Bring the world into the classroom

The Google UK Schools Site offers free resources for teachers to help use Google tools in the classroom.

Working with teachers, they have developed ideas for how Google Search, Maps, Earth, Images and News can be integrated into the curriculum to help bring subjects such as geography, history and citizenship to life.

The site offers:

  • Lesson plans and student activity sheets for primary (cross-curricular) and secondary (geography, history and citizenship)
  • A discussion group to share ideas on how to use Google in the classroom with other teachers
  • A comprehensive guide on how to use Google Earth, including when carrying out fieldwork
  • Links to information on how to use Google tools
  • Tutorials for students on how to search well
  • Useful “gadgets” for teachers that you can add to your Google homepage such as the latest news on education and schools
  • Links to other Google projects for schools
