What does it mean to be a global citizen? This blog is designed to display ideas for addressing this question in a project based approach for elementary students. I will add ideas for technology tools that can used by teachers and students as well as websites that might be useful.

Books about global citizenship
Here is a list of books I found at 22books.com under the title of 'Global Citizenship'. I have not read any of these books so I cannot recommend them but I hope to tackle this list in the near future. I am also planning on putting together my own list of books on this topic.
Poll Everywhere
Here is a quick poll I designed for our inquiry project titled, "What does it mean to be a global citizen?". This tool could be used to asses students knowledge and ideas before and after the project. One of the main points that I would be looking for by doing this would be to see if this in depth study has changed any of my students ideas. I want to help students develop a love for humanity and the world through this study and would be curious if they have changed any of their opinions. I would use this information to help drive our study and also to adapt the study for the next group of students.

Box of Tricks
Here is a link to an education blog that has a long list of technology tools for educators. I thought it would be a useful reference list!
