__The Watson's Go To Birmingham__

This is a book report type Google Lit Trip about the book, __The Watson's Go To Birmingham__. This seems really straight forward and pretty easy. The students would read the book and then summarize the book while using Google Earth to plot where the Watsons go on their vacation, all of them historic civil rights spots. There are specific questions the students need to answer for each chapter. An example for chapters 1 and 2 is, "What is the mood and tone that the author is trying to develop in chapters 1 and 2? List examples to support your answer." I can completely see using this in my classroom. As a literature teacher, I envision this helping the students make the story come alive for them.
