Audience: Elementary Students, K-12, Teachers
Here’s a site that lets you travel around the world using Google Maps’ street view option...

Click the teleport button and you’ll be whisked away to a 360 degree view of somewhere in the world. A google map at the right side pinpoints where you’ve landed, and you can zoom in and out on the map. The image window acts just like Google street view, so you can pan, zoom, and travel within the window. You can limit where you teleport to by unchecking any of the continent options in the upper-right portion of the window. Thanks to Joe McMichael for this funvirtual experience!
