See Saw Me
Phyliss Poston shared an app with me that her first graders are using to record their oral reading, explanation of how they solved problems and to explain their thinking. The app has been added to many of our ipads. Seesaw empowers students of any age to independently document what they are learning at school.
Students capture learning with photos and videos of their work, or by adding digital creations. Everything gets organized in one place and is accessible to teachers from any device.
Student work can be shared with classmates, parents, or published to a class blog. Seesaw gives students a real audience for their work and offers parents a personalized window into their child's learning. I can envision numerous ways this app could support your students.
