Marine Traffic Research Prompt and Writing Stimulus

Lesson idea:

Use marine traffic as a research prompt and writing stimulus!
Marine Traffic tracks all marine traffic around the globe in real time. When I see a ship out on Port Phillip Bay I really enjoy finding out where it has come from and seeing a close up photo of the ship. You could have students explore Marine Traffic, choose a ship from anywhere in the world, use this ships as a research prompt and then write based on your research.
