TeachersFirst Reading Treks are a way of creating a virtual field trip of resources
about a piece of literature or text using the My Maps feature of Google Maps.
Engaging and immersing readers in a story with maps and their pop-ups that have
interesting information about the “stop” is a powerful tool! TeachersFirst knows that
many teachers have limited time to build such a literature experience on their own. To
that end, TeachersFirst offers this growing collection of Reading Treks to help teachers
seeking to integrate technology in their K12 classrooms.
