Where Is Your Next Adventure?

I'm gearing up for Geography Awareness Week 2011 with an emphasis on the theme: Explore the Adventure in Your Community. The folks over at The Geography Collective have created cool MISSIONS to get you out and about...exploring your community.  Also, Daniel Raven-Ellison, one of their geographers, is stopping by the NCGE Webinar program to show off what they're up to!

If you want to get outside and discover something new, try these GPS-enabled activities with your students, family and friends!

• Geocaching www.geocaching.com
• Earthcaching www.earthcaching.com 
• Confluencing www.confluence.org 

If you'd like lesson plans, check out Going Places with GPS by Roger & Anita Palmer.


Bottom line, get out in the fresh air and explore your world!
