Google Custom Search



Each year, second grade teacher, Judy Kittel,  researches appropriate websites for her students to for their their Native American research project.  For years she has keept a neat list of links on her classroom webpage and navigated students there for information  But NOW....kids can search these very sites through Google Custom Search!

Judy created her very own Google Search experience and shared it with her Second Grade Team.  Now each teacher can add the link to an assignment in Google Classroom or even embed the search box in a website! What a great way to model key words and interent searching in a controlled environment for success!  Way to  #makeithappenTES 2nd Grade!


Visit our Special Events Page on the LCPS Elementary website of student links to view this custom search or create your own custom search .
