"Today (24.4.17) our school was visited by Google expeditions. We got to use the Google Cardboard which is a VR set. I really enjoyed it and my class got to visit a Rainforest. We found out some interesting facts about Orang-Utans like: Orang-Utans share 97% of human DNA! I really enjoyed it and after a while I forgot that I was in school!" By Christine P7
“I enjoyed Google cardboard because it was cool how we could just see everything just by looking around. It is basically a cheaper version of a VR (Virtual Reality) headset that you can get for gaming and although you can’t properly game there are some games that support it, you don’t have to game with it you can watch videos, look around 360 pictures and see some things you would miss from just looking at a normal picture.” Saul P7
“Today we did a fun thing Google Cardboard.
We all loved it. Some people felt a bit dizzy, but I loved it.” Lucas P5L
"I really liked Goggle Expeditions. Google Cardboard is a box with a phone in it, it is a VR set. You can type in where you want to go and you can have a look about your destination. P5 looked at Egypt, we could see the Sphinx. The pyramids were huge, when you looked down you were floating in the air. It was a really fun experience." Dylan P5L
Five Things about Google Expeditions
I liked the way you felt as if you were in where ever you picked.
Google Expeditions is a fun way to explore the world as a kid.
My teacher Miss Lloyd took my class to visit our new topic Egypt.
I saw all the pyramids and tombs.
I love Google Expeditions and I would give them 10 out of 10!

"I really enjoyed Google expeditions because the headsets made you think you were there. I think that the graphics were really good and I think it is the best thing Google invented. I also think it would be good to help children learn about W.A.U. I think it is amazing and I would recommend it to any people who want to use it. When our class went there we were looking at orang-utans in Borneo. It was great because you could see the orang-utans close up. On our trip to Borneo, we also saw the process of deforestation happening. This is bad because it leaves animals without their natural habitat. It made me think about all the ways we use the rainforests, such as materials, palm oil, fruits and cola.
I would give Google expeditions five stars."
