Class Discussion: Discuss (as a class) how technology could be used to address adapt content for this class, when the lesson features learning the Names of the States using the Seterra online game site for matching the names of State Capitals, displayed to the whole class on an interactive white board (as shown below).

The Scenario
Imagine you have a class of 26 students. Three students are emerging bilingual students whose families speak Cantonese, Croatian, and Vietnamese respectively at home. One of the students has a temporary (soccer field) injury to his right (writing) hand, one has very low vision (only light perception), and one is hearing impaired. The class also includes 3 reluctant readers who are not identified and thus do not have ppt accommodations.
