-
A4: We (teachers at our school) used Ss for tech PD throughout summer. Ss and tech at the same time. https://t.co/ymkh9Ik96i
-
-
This sounds interesting...can you tell me more about how?
-
Hi, Misty. We started today. Have a great first day!
-
-
I uploaded video "live" from EOY plays last year. It was so easy for Ps who couldn't be there.
-
A5: Rolling out the commenting feature slowly will help improve the quality of comments!
-
awesome! Used to do that with Animoto. Love the ways discussing using tech to build reading community.
-
Q5 - Give folders specific titles, work w/ students to develop deeper reflections, let your Ss come up with ways to

-
-
A4: Sending a student made video newsletter weekly home on this year!

Q5: Baby steps, let purpose and student need drive choices. Gradual release.
-
A5: Allowing Ss to choose how to express their understanding leads to AWESOME products! Ex. Ss choose voice, writing or drawing
-
We really like using readwritethink headsets. Strong enough for K & 1s$17-20
-
A5 use Seesaw in the real world! Assess using real tangible kid centered things. I hate paper
-
A5: Don't forget that you can incorporate the classics... paper, colored pencils & manipulatives! Camera = endless options!
-
A5: let Ss explore - they are so intuitive and creative!
-
can you add text to photos aside from drawing tool?Was thinking just link a google drawing but would love this feature
-
At the end of my first week of school. Planning to introduce to my second graders next week.
-
Love that can be used virtually anywhere.
-
Q5: Stressing that works across platforms is very important since schools have a range of devices
-
Thanks! We don't have PIN until later in the month, & want to connect parents right away! Welcome to the Ss fam!
-
A5: decide on your procedures. Where will the ipad(s) be? How do Ss access them? I changed my mind too many times last year!
-
A5: Have plenty of student additions before you invite parents. It increases the WOW factor.
-
A5: Start SMALL! Let your Ss guide you in ways to use .
-
Get those hands on stuff! Yes indeed! All learning forms welcome in
-
A5 We use during PD to model and to have teachers upload what they have done. Great way to document and collect samples!
-
A5 don't underestimate Ss- they will pick it up faster than you think! Don't be afraid to start @ beg of yr-theyll surprise you
-
A5-I keep the class QR code posted right next to the tablets for easy login

Q5 What are some tips and tricks you would like to share with community? Help our new & vet Ts! https://t.co/Plrf56AYeh
-
I want to make use of the QR codes this year - add it to my list of goals! :)
-
A5: Use as evidence in data team mtgs, conferences, etc. It's as if the Ss are there telling you about their learning!
-
A5 Knowing that we could upload items w/out tagging a S, don't overwhelm Ps with notifications
-
Q5 Encourage - give positive feedback - sit back & enjoy what they contribute!
-
I do love paper and crayons for writer's workshop though:)
-
would love to share π last yr I learned and practiced now I'll share this year with staff. would β€οΈ to help
-
A5: Provide feedback to ! They listen and they act on the feedback from Ts and it just keeps getting better!
-
ooh I need to look into these!
-
A5: Don't be afraid to let your primary kids jump right in.They are more tech savvy than you think! is SO user friendly!
-
And sometimes, I gave permission for them to escape to our quieter hallway! https://t.co/J9u6KmydPs
-
-
A5 Create recording spots for recoding audio around the perimeter of your room
-
A5 like 3D shapes, have the kids video then throwing them down the hall. rolls, slides or flip, explain thinking
-
-
Great suggestion. Trying to incorporate a green screen space. Could do it in this area.
-
A5b: Warn Ss that if they leave their headphones plugged into their phone the audio may not record! Happened many times!
-
A5:Don't reinvent wheel just for (You can, but who has time?) Use what you do already &SHARE on or tweak to fit.
-
A5 Create a class of teachers so they can post what they are doing in their room for inspiration.
-
A5 do not underestimate what your Ss can do! (or yourself for that matter)
-
A5 I think with little, littles it works best to start in small groups with various tools, adding one a time until independ
-
-
A5: Don't overthink it! Ss are so capable of using - set up expectations but let them be creative.
-
A5: hoping to get our k teachers to let my 2nds teach the Ks how to do seesaw. They have iPads. We have chromebooks.
-
. We also take rugs out into our hallway and record there. Sparked interest in in other teachers.
-
-
plan to give overview of seesaw then play scavenger hunt game to learn and practice tools
-
-
Q5 We appreciate ANY ideas to use with our first graders as we jump into 1-1 iPads using Seesaw!
-
Allowing older Ss to comment on each other's work helps to teach digital citizenship
-
has an awesome 1st grade padlet
-
-
My students are often in the hallway and when I find them they are always working! So engaged!
-
I do a lot of that! Take a picture of your work to share!
-
. My Ss were pushing the volume off button on their headphone mic, had to practice not doing that ;-)
-
maybe have a teacher separate class where teachers can share ideas and work done in their classes
-
Absolutely! Possibilities are endless with ! https://t.co/zzZKKoO4cY
-
-
A5 do not underestimate what your Ss can do! (or yourself for that matter)
-
Love the trust they've earned! https://t.co/8MURepeDX5
-
-
My students are often in the hallway and when I find them they are always working! So engaged!
-
I was the only one using Seesaw last year this year I have a few on board with me. I'm hoping it catches on school wide!
-
A5 another tip is to model how you put the device down and then record audio. Help reduce the shuffling of little hands
-
There is research about the importance of physically writing (not typing) to increase reading skills. Seesaw can support this!
-
I tried that but my Kinders quickly figured out the other tools without me!
-
Yes! A lot of Ts I worked with last year didn't give Ps access & this authentic audience piece is HUGE. https://t.co/H7Jb4cBqtm
-
-
A5. part 2 -Have Ss playback their audio recordings and redo if there are any problems -don't wait until teacher has to approve!
-
They seldom abuse that trust. I'm painting a hallway green for Shh...don't tell admin!
-
I created an class of teachers. I want them to be inspired by what's happening around the school
-
is right I spend time doing each function, small doses, then have. A large multi use seesaw hunt as a final project
-
Watch out when it does catch on...spreads like unstoppable wild fire!!! :)
-
Yes, once they have one or two in the pocket, they are off
-
-
-
A5: spend some time showing Ss how to take good pics- holding still, perspective, distance, etc.
-
love that! Such an awesome way to collaborate and grow!
-
-
A5: have Ss practice what they are going to say before recording
-
-
A5: Have parent use Ss during Parent Night and leave a video for their child. My K's watched it all year long (esp. when sad).
-
ππ» If I'm talking about an S's fluency, I can pull up recordings of her reading so that Ps and other Ts can hear
-
-
A5 I show their work in occasionally on my Smartboard, good for reflection and sharing
-
You know what? I let my Ss teach me a lot last year. I let it be an organic growth!
-
-
A hallway green screen, Oh I love you! Awesome!!!!
-
A5- allow Ss 2 post work they feel is quality or that they want 2 share w/ Ps. Doesn't always have 2b T given assignments
-
If you do this, is it only visible on the students feed? Teachers feed? But not to parents?
-
-
-
Also with the new features in Seesaw Plus I'll be able to pull up Ss items related to a certain skill
-
. You'll be surprised how shy Ss will be to record at first! https://t.co/J42rW2zr4B
-
-
A5: have Ss practice what they are going to say before recording
-
-
I didn't try it last year. I used to tag "everyone" but then Ps were confused by a blank worksheet or whatnot
-
A6: Seesaw and Starbucks, Tshirt giveaways and much more!
-
In a new role this year, I'm spending 30 minutes a day 6-7 days in willing teachers rooms modeling Seesaw uses and ideas
-
A5 I got higher quality posts when we did whole group shares with feedback from peers then post again the same thing w/edits
-
A6: We share & talk about it to everyone. Also, Our parents are our best advertisers, in a small district word gets around
-
-
A6: Offer invitation to come see it in action. Make padlet and ask parents to post their thoughts and then share it.
-
It mostly happens in division meetings and in the staff room. I'll pull it out on my phone and show it. https://t.co/Ap4imsaIlb
-
Your Ts are so lucky to have you!
-
A6: Using as the tool for delivering PD is a great way to model it while introducing it to teachers
-
A6 Will be doing mini sessions for my staff this year as part of our grade level meetings.

-
Great tip! https://t.co/o612fIKJjH
-
-
A5 I got higher quality posts when we did whole group shares with feedback from peers then post again the same thing w/edits
-
A6: Hard to NOT tell Ts! "Heard of ?" "No?!" "Let me tell you...amazing...game changer..." and on and on! Can't stop!
-
A6: When I tell other Ts about many of them naturally start asking how they can get started with it! :)
-
A6: I show them my Ss work & gush about how much easier my grading/record keeping has become! That gets many bites & buy-in!
-
A5: Or record a good content video by posing questions, so Ss know what to talk about. https://t.co/QUxsj1PRlb
-
-
A5: spend some time showing Ss how to take good pics- holding still, perspective, distance, etc.
-
Kids showing other teachers & kids what they did and how to do it got a lot of our Ts onboard
-
A6: I share with all Ts I meet with and social media, great to have Ss talk about it too
-
-
Anchor charts are great to have for expectations for video commentary etc.,
-
A6 I included Seesaw in my PD about apps in the classroom. Teachers loved it!
-
Sharing how easy it is to use & that you can use it as little or as much as you like. Great place to start is to collect S work
-
A6 Showing an alternative to using paper
-
. So true! I had a S w/high anxiety last yr. helped him break down those barriers.
-
Oh man, busy at Kinko's printing! A6: I am helping lead a PD session in the district on Seesaw. It's still very new over here!

A6 im constantly pulling my phone out to other Ts to brag on my Ss work on
-
A6 I will be a special area teacher and using seesaw with my classes and hope to use QR codes and examples at faculty meetings
-
-
A6 I think about would be a fun way to start the day too
-
-
A6 modeling how u can get information of mastery of standards in an "untraditional way" so much data you can get from "kid talk"
-
It's the 1st topic of any "shop talk" I find myself in! We might hijack conversations with sometimes!
-
A6: raving about it all the time, because it It. Just. That. Awesome. Enthusiasm is contagious! Hosting PD when possible
-
Still anxiously waiting to see if my district will approve use again this year:( Don't know what I'm going to do w/out
-
A6 Once Ts in my grade saw how easy it was and what a time saver for digital portfolios it was game over!
-
I did PD on my Porch!! Fun! βοΈβοΈ
-
A6) I mentor new teachers. The one I mentored last year was too overwhelmed, but wants to use Seesaw this year.
-
Love these step by step lesson plans! So helpful for newbies!
-
A6 I love these "I'm the crazy Seesaw teacher" comments You're in good company here
-
-
. I had my !st gdrs be mini ambassadors last spring and visited classrooms to teach teachers and peers how to use.
-
A6 I invite them to listen and watch cute items and by the wayβ¦itβs so easy...
-
A6:big obstacle is proving its as beneficial for students as schoology. It's a great way to get primary kids introduced to tech.
-
A6: In dist trainings this wk w/ new 1:1 campus staff, I shared Seesaw w many secondary Ts, esp electives, Career/TechEd & SpEd
-
A6 We have collaboration day and so when we got together as music teachers showed them what I did with Seesaw.They were excited.
-
A6: also sharing my blog with other Ts - gives a glimpse into what my Ss can do!
-
A6: Parents talk and teachers hear from them. More teachers are exposed to the power of Seesaw
-
Absolutely! We have a Fluency Fun station in my class where Ss record & reflect using this: https://t.co/iW3AgR2Qlm
