Maps and Globes with Toot and Puddle

We are learning about maps and globes.  By reading a map of our classroom, the children had to find the
hidden bookbag.  Inside the bookbag, they found the story of Toot and Puddle.  They enjoyed the story about a pig (Toot) who travels around the world and leaves his friend (Puddle)behind, but not forgotten.  Puddle receives postcards all over the world from Toot.  The children enjoyed marking Toot's travels on a world map and looking at all the places Toot visited thanks to Google Earth.
