Hello boys and girls,
Welcome to your first computer lab period of 2014!
Today in the lab, you will be working independently on Geoguessr. Take your time like we did in class to examine your location and make your best guess.
To show me that you are using your geographic skills effectively, write a comment on this post telling me a location that you guessed and what clues helped you to make that guess.
After you have finished one round of Geoguessr (5 locations), visit IXL and work on Data Management and Graphing activities.
Have fun!

where I am there are Christmas trees and I think maple trees so i think it is somewhere in Canada but i don't know for sure
ReplyDeleteI guessed my location was Central Colorado, because of the trees and forestry, as well was there were modern cars, well paved roads, construction, and a sign that said "CABIN RVPARK".
ReplyDeleteI guessed I was in Mexico because when I was in Mexico I saw houses like the ones in the picture.
ReplyDeleteI would say I was in North America in the US in California because it was desert and it still had greenery and that is one image of a Californian road that comes to my mind. I also noticed that it seemed in the middle of nowhere in a sense, but it did have quite a few road sing so it was probably a highway.
ReplyDeletemy guess was Europe hungry but it was Romanian i thought it was Europe cause it sort of looked like Europe to me
ReplyDeletei guessed right off of Vancouver because i went there last summer and it looked like there . also it was near water there where a lot of tourists and there was a cruise ship like the one we road taking people to another island farther away .
ReplyDeletethe real place is in Maine (us)
When I was in GeoGuesser I found a sign that said:makgadikgadi pans national park.
ReplyDeleteSo I looked it up and found it was in Africa.I was just above where I needed to be.
For my location there was a graveyard and the graveyard had a sign so I read the sign and it said "tominout distillery". I searched that up on the internet and it said that location was in Scotland Tomintoul, So when I placed my guess I tried to make it really close to Tomintoul. My guess was 96.122km away from the correct location
ReplyDeletethere was words in French and there was a golf course so i thought it was Quebec but it was in Europe and it was a golf course but it was Finland :(
ReplyDeleteI was far away from my guess, it turned out to be in western Australia, I think that they both can get very hot, so the climate is sort of similar, but the latitude is not the perfect match.
ReplyDeleteI was on this mountain trail on geoguessr, and there was a small sign saying "Pinnell Mountain Trail." So I searched Pinnell Mountain Trail and it came up saying 'Pinnell Mountain Trail in Northern Alaska'!!! Gotta love the internet

I guessed that the place I was in was in Yukon Canada because it was snowing and the Yukon has snow right now. I also realized that the one sign I could see was amscc, but I couldn't go any closer to see what the sign was for. The correct place was Germany. The Latitude was almost the same, the line as a little slanted.
ReplyDeleteI guessed this rooniapollis Roana south America because i read a sigh that looked different and the land form was very rocky and it was very blurry so i thought it was really hot i got really close
ReplyDeletefor one of them i guessed Sudan because, it looked really rundown and there were some stores that didn't have a door. the people looked really hungry and dirty, and poor! and i could just tell from all of the places and stores and peoples houses! how the buildings were made out cardboard and logs!
ReplyDeleteit was 13220.303 kilometers away from what i guessed.
So I was doing another GeoGuessr and it was on a street and I say this building with a sign on it that said 'Imperial Valley Press'. So I searched it on the internet and there it was!!!! Southern California! I love the internet.

I think that my first location is in Porto Seguro because borders a ocean and because there was a sign that I think said Porto Seguro.
ReplyDeleteI made a guess of Costa Rica, I could not find the name, but it was on highway 23 in Mexico.
ReplyDeleteI think its in Mexico because its hot looking, there are some English on the stores, but there is another language with some accents
ReplyDelete13273.219 km that is how far I was away form whar I guessed. My guess was chilli cause it looked very hot. And the answer was Queensland
ReplyDeleteI was on geoguessr and I was so sure it was the united states because it had the american flag on the road. then I had to figure out were in the united states so I looked around and I saw a restaurant named papa leones so I searched that up on the internet and it said it was in NY. so I looked for the exact street and I entered it but it turns out it was on the border of arizona and LA

I guessed tat it was in ontario because of an area code on a for sale sign, and it was in a rural place. it turned out it was in eastern saskatchewan
ReplyDeleteI was 2551.542 km away but I was close.
ReplyDeleteHEY HEY YEAH YOU YES YOU DID WE WIN THE CHROME BOOKS?????
ReplyDeleteI guessed that it was in in south-western BC in the rocky mountains because there is allot of greenery, mountains, and developed road, although it was in the middle of nowhere. I used those clues to get my answer because I know that BC has allot of greenery, is mountany (because of the rocky mountains), and developed. It was only 424.998 km away, mostly north and a little west of my location.
ReplyDeleteI found out that since I was a ego graphic kind of guy, I figured out them pretty easily. One time I was 2k away from the place. (It was in Finland).
