Seesaw
Seesaw is a student-driven digital portfolio that allows users of all ages to document and share what they are learning at school. It is a free iPad app that is available on all of our kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade, and gen ed cart iPads. Intermediate teachers, have no fear... Seesaw is fully accessible on the Chromebook through seesaw.me.
Seesaw is a learning journal that allows teachers and students to create and/or upload work to post in a private class feed. Teachers have the ability to approve all posts before they're uploaded to the feed. Parents can be invited to see their child’s posts through a different app.
Seesaw posts can be:
photos
videos
drawings
typed text
website links
If you want to learn more about Seesaw, come join me in the LRC classroom this Wednesday, 10/26 during Teacher-Directed Collaboration. Click here if you're interested in collaborating with me!
