ACT Aspire Resources
Check out our AMS Instructional Resources page in Canvas to find ACT Aspire resources. I have collected numerous helpful resources over the past 3 years to ensure the students are familiar and comfortable with the testing format.
Seesaw
Seesaw is a digital portfolio site that allows for immediate parent access and interaction. It blends seamlessly with Canvas, Google Classroom, and Google Drive. Seesaw is perfect for showing off videos, presentations, and websites students have made to parents instead of being lost in their Drive where no one will ever see it. Seesaw is great for formative assessments, paperless graphic organizers, and keeping parents of all ages informed. Come see me if you're interested in trying this out in your classroom.
