How does a special education teacher use Gemini to build classroom simulations?

Designing station-based English simulations

Graff calls Gemini a planning partner that helps her design multi-station role-playing challenges for English classes. Before students read complex stories about climate change or human rights, they participate in global simulations that require them to move around the room solving problems and building empathy. She says these experiences could not have been easily created on her own a few years ago. The tool structures the stations and writes the prompts that guide each group. It also suggests ways to link the physical activity to the literary themes they will encounter later. Graff emphasizes that the AI does not teach the class. It prepares the framework so she can focus on facilitating the live experience.

English classes turn into physical scenarios

In English classes the simulations cover climate change and human rights. Students physically move through the room to solve problems at different stations. The goal is to build empathy before they open their books. Graff says the AI helps her quickly build these challenges. She does not say how many stations each simulation uses. She does not say how long each session lasts. The announcement does not describe how she assesses student learning during the simulation. It does not mention whether the same simulation runs multiple times a year. The teacher remains the one who decides when to pause, when to redirect, and when to connect the activity to the text.

No session length is given.

Nutrition practice in Life Skills

It helps design smoothie recipes and dietary profiles for Life Skills courses. Students blend ingredients and practice mindful nutrition firsthand. The activity turns abstract nutrition concepts into
