Have students
complete a
Google Trek that
pins different
time zones.
Students will
use addition and
subtraction to
tell the
difference in
time between
the time zones.
1d. Model
collaborative
knowledge
construction by
engaging in
learning with
students,
colleagues,
and others in
face-to-face and
virtual
environments

Apply. Students
apply their
knowledge about
math and maps
to solve
problems.

Reading, Writing, and Communicating

1. Oral Expression
and Listening

Student Use

Flipped
Classroom

2. Reading for All

Purposes
3. Writing and
Composition

Create a Google
Trek that gives
simple
directions
between two
places (e.g.
School to the
grocery store)
Pinning and
describing each
turn that needs
to be made.
2b.
Communicate
information and
ideas effectively
to multiple
audiences using
a variety of
media
and formats

Create. Children
create a how-to
writing sample.

4. Research and
Reasoning
Social Studies
1. History

Pin regional and

community
historical
places/artifacts.
For each pin,
ask a question
about the place
for other
students to
answer.
5b. Exhibit a
positive attitude
toward using
technology that
supports
collaboration,

learning, and
productivity

2. Geography
3. Economics

Create a Google
Trek for
students
featuring
places
that at
one time
had
scarce
resource
s (e.g.
dust
bowl)
and
attach
primary
source
material
about
how
people
lived
through
the great
depressi
on.
d. Model and
facilitate
effective
use of
current
and
emerging
digital
tools to
locate,
analyze,
evaluate,
and use

Understand.
Students will
have an
opportunity to
gain
understanding
about what
people do in
places with
scarce resources.

1. Physical Science
2. Life Science

3. Earth Systems
Science

Students are
given a set of
pinned places
on a map and
they have to
discern if its a
habitable place
for people and
explain their
reasoning.
4a. Identify and
define authentic
problems and
significant
questions for
investigation
Create Google
Trek featuring
places that have
had a
catastrophic
weather event
and post
primary source
material on
those
events(New
Orleans,
Katrina.)
1c. Promote

Apply. Students
apply their
knowledge what
makes a location
habitable.

Analyze.
Students will
analyze the
effects of
catastrophic
weather events.

Learning Disabilities EEOs

Google Treks and

primary sources
allow for a more
hands on and
illustrative way to
convey information
than reading from a
standard text.

Reflection: For this one I did second grade standards instead of first grade as Ive done the others. That actually made this a little
easier as the second grade standards have children exploring things more in depth. I like the Google Treks because it gives you
an ability to explore places, near and far and see how things that have happened or our happening there effects people. It also
gives a scope to distances between places (as a child, I just figured any place that wasnt Colorado was out of reach.) However, I
could not think of a math activity for Google Trek, I also have a hard time thinking about primary source use for math and number
functions and operations. However, for something like social studies, Google Trek has about a million uses I think.
