Einstein's Historical Journey

Greetings from the Einstein's Classroom Friends!

*Updated travel plans (2023): Our Geobug has been traveling for 2 years and sixth graders are now watching its progress. We would like our Geobug to travel out of the country. We are currently studying different governments and economies.

Along with Einstein, we are learning American History in North American in our 5th grade classroom.  Please move our class Geobug as close as you can to the locations below. This is a very abbreviated list! We will be tracking the GPS settings and studying our history along the way! It would be great if Einstein could return to Fort Bend County in Texas by May.
