Learning Disabilities EEOs

The teacher can

provide Google
Trek maps in
almost every
content area to
support a child
with learning
disabilities. This is
a way for the
student to access
information
whenever they
need it while still
utilizing
technology.

Physical Disabilities
Gifted/ Talented

These students may

create their own
Google Trek
presentation using
only primary
sources and teach
their own lesson
to the class using
their map as a tool
of instruction.

Reflection: I still find it neat how often we can utilize technology in each subject area. Who would have thought that I could use a
Google Trek map to teach a math lesson? These matrices are really showing me how to organize my thoughts and how
technology can be used in every aspect of education if you want it to. I think that this method of organization (matrix) is a great
way to create lesson plans that also follow state standards.
