PMB Step 5: Google Map / Moving Day MP4 S2 17-18

Google MAP Project
Today you will be creating a GOOGLE MAP of your new home and work area. Please sign-in to GMAIL and then follow Google site to Google Maps. Below is a link to a sample map that I created for myself. It assumes that my first job out of college was teaching here. I located our school, a local apartment, and I saved the route I take to work (use Get Directions and save the result to your map). I also included most of the information that you will have to find for yourself. See my example at the following link:
http://goo.gl/maps/aCRTS
Once you have looked at my map, your assignment today is to CREATE your own GOOGLE MAP that includes the following items:

Work, Home, Directions (Route) from Home to Work

You must also include the following:
GROCERY
SHOPPING MALL/CENTER
LAUNDRY/DRY CLEANER
COFFEE SHOP
PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION (Closest Bus or Train)
CLOSEST MAJOR AIRPORT (In case you need to fly home to Philly)
HOSPITAL
DOCTOR'S OFFICE
DENTIST'S OFFICE
CHURCH/PLACE OF WORSHIP (Optional)
THREE (3) DIFFERENT RESTAURANTS
TWO (2) FUN THINGS TO DO

Please add Mr. S (hscribner@ccs.us) as a COLLABORATOR and email me the link to your map. 

This exercise will give you an idea of what types of things you need to look for if you move to another city someday to take a job or start college. Even if you share an apartment/house with others, you should know this information. 

MOVING TO YOUR NEW CITY
Now you need to furnish your new place to live. Find a list of the following sources, and add it to your shopping list page.

1. Transportation around town: (Bike, Car, Public Transportation, Walk, etc.)

2. Basic Furniture: Bed, Couch, Table & Chairs, Lamps, Desk, Lights, TV, Stereo, Dresser, Computer, and other major items:

3. Household Goods: Dishes, Pots&Pans, Glassware, Silverware, Towels, Sheets, Blankets, Pillows, Plants, etc.:

List each item on your shopping list sheet of your SPREADSHEET. You must keep track of everywhere online you shop and enter your spending in your checkbook ledger. All of your spending will be tracked on this ledger for the month. Credits are deposits and Debits are spending/checks etc.
