Seesaw

As always, Seesaw Basic is FREE 


How do I love Seesaw?  Let me count the ways!

  • It is a digital portfolio for students that can be DOWNLOADED by stakeholders with accompanying QR codes.  
  • It allows for communication and collaboration between all members of our classroom family.  Students are able to see and comment on each other's work (if allowed by teacher).
  • Parents can see what students are uploading to their portfolio and can comment accordingly.
  • There are so many apps that work in tandem with Seesaw.
  • Students can demonstrate learning via recordings, pictures, drawings, and videos.
  • Teachers can create folders for differentiation.
  • Honestly, the list is always evolving because Seesaw is such an amazing tool.

Scared to take the leap?  Just set up a folder to house the links, videos, and anchor charts that you share with your students.  This gives students a "go to" location for finding this information at a later date.

Already a pro?  Try out Seesaw Activities in the "Beyond the Basics" section.

UPDATE: 11/15/2018
I didn't really know if I would continue using Seesaw at the middle school level, but it is just as wonderful as ever.  I LOVE the activities feature.  Check out the photo below.  I can create an activity and quickly see who has not turned it in.  This is helping me move closer to a virtually paperless classroom.  Also, the fact that parents can see what their child is doing makes this an amazing collaborative tool.
