-
Nice! Are Ts already using it this year at your school?
-
Great to see you here Karen!!
-
A2 wrinkled a piece of paper and talk about power of words and how once words are shared it's hard to take back or delete
-
Q2 I personally discuss and model use as a learning tool first versus a tool to play. What is appropriate/safe at home/school
-
A2 my first ever step was safe info to share online. Looked at red yellow and green info. Created unplugged fakefacebook profile
-
A2 I asked parents at Back to School to leave more meaty comments. Careful for what you wish for...now? long detailed comments 😻
-
-
-
Sara from WI joining late. K-5 digital learning specialist
-
Q2 seen a lesson using toothpaste as an example on when you squeeze the tooth paste out, how hard/impossible it is to put back
-
A2 on our campus, we have aligned it with the 3Bs. Be safe, be responsible, be respectful in school and ONLINE
-
A2 Last year in kindergarten we also practiced where we keep devices and how to care for them. Baby ste… https://t.co/OaLW8EDXlX
-
A2 Talk mainly about kind + encouraging words to each other. Haven’t branched so much into online safety much with the littlies
-
Q2 I have made fullsizws double bubbles using blocks and hula hoops
-
really like this idea! Might have to steal it! Lol
-
A2 we're very scripted right now with the common sense media curriculum. Looking to branch out.
-
-
-
-
Love the wrinkled heart activity!!
-
A1: I C many K-5 classes so I try and build schema of "digital world" and relate it to how a real life citizen should act
-
Me too! Going to keep that up my sleeve for next year!
-
-
A2: Made this poster our ipad lockscreens to remind them of this minilesson https://t.co/ZlJknpM8C5
-
-
A2: I explicitly teach how to offer feedback in a way that is helpful and kind. Use this poster inspired by… https://t.co/Bh9sae5aqe
-
Yes, that is straight from Craig's kit too
-
-
-
-
-
A3: Having comment approval on helps me have meaningful conversations with students about appropriate use before damage is done
-
-
A3 isn’t a tool out there in a school setting that lets you manage an entire school, like a social media outlet with Ts Ss Ps
-
I love this. Do you mind if I borrow it??
-
A3 Allows Ss to learn appropriate online practices in a safe, closed, monitored environment
-
That's why we are here! Never too late for a reminder!
-
A3 we are constantly commenting on each other's work so we practice saying words and asking thoughtful questions
-
Wish I could be on today but I'm running around getting ready for tomorrow! Looking forward to the transcript later!
-
A3 when issues arise and they have we get opportunities to discuss digital citizenship as an upfront and contestant thing.
-
-
A3 I have some real good examples I could share Pg-13 and R rated…..ugh
-
-
I like the approval feature also. It would be easy to just deny without reflecting but easy isn't best in this case.
-
is a safe place to make mistakes, and have those essential discussions about what is respectful, helpful etc
-
A3 Seesaw is a great training wheel for students to practice with since we approve everything they post before it goes live
-
-
-
YES! It's perfect training wheels for Ss to learn the appropriate ways to be digital citizens.
-
We are using the curriculum but I using it with and in and

-
Wow great experience for your Ss!!
-
What apps do you have the student use that work well with seesaw? Please respond:)
-
A4: Ps of course, but also a bunch of Ts & other school/community stakeholders...even admins thru Seesaw for Schools!
-
-
A4 Ss share with Ps& some GrandPs, blog some classwork. I created a student .Mary (me). I share with principal and my own mom!
-
WOW! Three amazing chats tonight talking about Ss
-
A4: So far my Ts are learning. Only Ps and Ss. Hoping to get a global one started soon. Anyone, anyone?
-
A4: teachers, parents, peers. Not sure our school community is ready to share globally. That's my goal!
-
A3 T approval plus allowing students to edit posts provides for good digital citizenship.
-
-
I think the list would be over 100 maybe
-
A5: I just turned mine on for Ss 7 weeks into Q1 & taught them how to give thoughtful feedback.
-
-
Not to chase a rabbit, but how do you handle sharing for the students who are on the "Do Not Publish" list?
-
A5: For Ps it's been on all year and something we sort of hit on at the beginning.
-
A5 I have all likes and comments on with my approval before it's posted for parents and students
-
A5: I start with comments & likes off, then introduce. I can teach Ss how valuable is for PERSONAL reflection first
-
A5 Right away, older kids will drive you nuts, but that is how digital citizenship is learned,
-
A5 I turn them on after initial discussion, turn off if necessary, then back on. I LOVE that capability
-
-
I have not taught my kids to respond to each other yet. Something for me to think bout for the future.
-
A5 Create a safe environment to make mistake, then discuss, teach, mold and coach into responsible citizens, Comment away !
-
A5 I like having students be able to view each other's work all year so they can learn from each other and collaborate
-
We are still working on what is appropriate to share. We will handle comments later!
-
A5: from the start! That's what makes so engaging and hit high levels of
-
My daughter (1st grade) tried SeeSaw last night and, out of the blue, she says "leave a comment" at the end of her audio!
-
A5: couple weeks at least. I want them to have enough posts as well as some practice using the app and being respectful in class
-

-
-
so cool to see it from diff sides. Bside my own mom & my principal, also have daughter studying abroad, as subscriber🐶
-
Cute! Feedback is important
-
We are practicing creating posts that are WOW work! We are getting better as we get into it.
-
A5 some of our our teachers have two classes - one for instructional use (setting is off) and another for collab (setting is on)
-
Interesting. What grade level?
-
-
-
-
3-5 mostly. k-2 teachers have one class and have it off for the moment. Maybe more comfortable with it on later
-
-
A4 I have a Ss whose Mom lives in Costa Rica. She is able to see his work! So awesome!
-
-
-
A6: Model in mini-lessons & by making my own comments for Ss to see & read. Have Ss practice in bell work.
-
A6 comment on as much as you can, Set the example of how its done, Try to make HQ comments for kids to see. HIGH QUALITY IS KEY !
-
-
-
A6 Model HQ feedback not just in create classrooms that invite discussion of what went well what can be better.
-
-
A6:We practice the THINK Rule in class...on written work...when we speak and carry it into our work digitally.
-
-
-
A6: Model first, then Ss create a comment on their own and we revise it using TAG posters, then stick to anchor chart
-
Here is a link to a hard copy of the "play TAG" I use for offline practice in writers workshop! https://t.co/aXN2mzF1RR
-
-
-
-
Talking in if your other chat has wrapped up :)
-
A5 I started with commenting and likes. Considering allowing students to view others work.
-
-
I love posting Exemplar work to twitter for the world to see!
-
A6 I establish expectations of being kind and respectful and remind them I can always delete before it posts if it isn't kind
-
So much for long daytime nap - have had to run off to baby duty but will look forward to reading the rest later!
-
-
-
A5 I think I will allow Ss to view others work after introducing TAG!
-
A7: When I asked Ps to join us - I used the Seesaw example to write a note to help Ps write helpful comments
-
A7: Beginning of year tips in newsletters & my own comments as a model. Need to put a pick of THINK strategy poster in .
-
A7: If you are working with emergent readers, I encouraged Ps to leave voice comments, not text
-
A7: Feel free to use and share our Seesaw Family Introduction video to introduce your Ps to Seesaw -… https://t.co/92cROca6j3
-
A7 anyone else having a um duh thats a really good idea moment
-
A7:I shared the S resource w/Ps by posting it once the majority of my parents were connected. … https://t.co/x95mEpBQAM
-
A7: wouldn't it be cool to have Ss create something to teach their Ps digcit and then share it on seesaw?
-
A7 I have posted a video from and how it works and have ability to approve parent comments
-
-
-

Best moment has been connecting parents, 1st time this yr. it's been magical and powerful, live feedback while learning happens
