Follow Mark Twain

One of my favorite blogs & Podcasts is The Bowery Boys.  They have a way of taking history and making it really engaging to students.  I use the Bowery Boys to illustrate what podcasts are and how they work. Today the Boys are discussing Mark Twains adventures in NYC.  This is a great lesson for language arts and technology teachers.  The blog has a Google Map embedded into the post, use the maps features to go street view or take a virtual field trip.  Use this post as a way to teach students about blogging or podcasts.  
Thank you Bowery Boys for all your hard work.
