We are taking part in a project with Forehill School in Aberdeen.  Both schools are getting a Primary 7 class to put their holiday destinations on a Google Map and then we can compare the 2 maps.  Today half of our class got to put placemarks on the map and those of us who had remembered to bring a digital image, got to put that in too.

First we had to upload our images to Photobucket, then we had to find our destination on the Google Map and put the image code there. It can be tricky. Zoom in to the map above to see the whole world and click on the placemarks to see our images.

We still have to check our punctuation.

We will publish again once we have finished the map.
