What’s SketchUp?
Google SketchUp is software that you can use to create 3D models of anything you like.

Why SketchUp?
Easily teach kids to construct 3D models of buildings, trees, cars, Plus… Can be used in conjunction with Google Earth and the 3D Warehouse Hands-on approach to understanding area and volume via studying
building and community design Apply to multiple subject areas Visualize geometry and other mathematical concepts Create models to learn about architecture, and design everything from
games and toys to models of spaceships and cars. Use it to participate in community development projects that involve
CAD (Computer Aided Design), GIS (Geographical Information System), or other design applications.
Kids are learning while having fun FREE
