-
-
Kindergarten teacher here currently working with Pre-K teachers excited to know more about Seesaw.
-
-
A2 first time this year was for entering data in their makerspace journal
-
I'm Bree a K teacher from IN using for my 2nd year & loving it. Looking forward to collaborate w/ other Seesaw Ts
-
A2 first started in March '16. Added readers responses, science experiments, story retelling, drawing math concepts.
-
-
I'm looking at doing this too so Ps see the goal and can help at home.
-
A2: We have not started this year at this point we are only 3 days in...
-
A2 Ss first used in K class to read their created farm books & work on fluency. Went pretty smooth and parents loved it.
-
Shared with ED teacher and ELL teacher - might get them to learn with me and take babysteps together.
-
-
Love this, Lorraine! "Whenever you learn, TEACH!" Great way to grow your own digital leaders. https://t.co/wWTfVEenM0
-
-
A2: I started with a small group on Day 5. That team taught other Ss. So powerful when kids have ownership over tech tools!
-
I haven't tried the Chrome extension yet, but can't wait to try...how has it worked for you?
-
-
A2: Last year in Kinder. I looped with some of my Ss to 1st. We began when we got our iPads - 2 weeks into school. cont...
-
A2: We have been using Seesaw for a year. Children narrated their block creations.
-
Glad I realized this was happening! I could always use more ideas moving forward.
-
-
Q3 Letβs talk about Seesaw icons. How did you incorporate student choice in this process? https://t.co/bAlc9qLAp2
-
A1: Karla from WI- first grade
-
-
-
Nice getting to know you integration. Sounds fun!
-
A3: Don't know how to do that yet. Just random
-
Our kids set an academic, character and personal goal. The Ps were very supportive
-
I am so anxious to get my ipads so we can Go!!!!!
-
Seesaw Go is something new that I want to learn more about!!
-
Excited to be here! Loving the conversation. Hi ;)
-
We used Seesaw the second day just to explore the app using the record/picture/add image mode. Then jumped to Seesaw Go.
-
A3: Itβs difficult to have Ss make their icons since I have to manually change them for all 44 kids
-
A3: Right now my Ss have the emojis, but I am looking for ideas for my 3rd graders!
-
-
that's in my plans for next week! Any tips??
-
-
A2: Cont. from previous... Ss loved using it as soon we got our iPads. We started off with Literacy and Math.
-
RT A3: Don't know hw 2 do tht yet. jst random :)
-
I really like that. Did you add a template to Seesaw for them to write or record on?
-
Awesome you made it Vlad! Try and keep up......he he he
-
A2 . We did it, but with a french version of each "corner" of the CLASS. Excuse m'y pour english...
-
Nice! How did that work exactly. Love the idea.
-
A3: This year I made sure each child had a different icon, no repeats
-
A3: I choose first. Last year I put photos instead. They loved seeing their faces! π
-
It's all set for you. Make sure your devices have the volume turned up all the way if it's noisy in your room
-
A3: when we do the map exploring tools I will give them the choice to change it
-
A3: Would love if emojis were automatically set for upper grades too. 4th graders still like them!
-
A2 Working on Chatterpix selfies 4 parent night Tuesday. Annick frm N-B Canada 7th gr. 1 iPad for 23+12laptops but no camera.
-
A3:I took idea with self-portraits by Ss- Ps and Ss have enjoyed it!
-
Jason has been looking for them and no luck yet! We are still full of Seesaw fun with 1 ipad!
-
-
is now trending in USA, ranking 42
-
A3 I give my struggling readers a choice of writing responses or recording them.
-
Mine too. Haven't had the time to change it up.
-
A2: Students took a family selfie at back to school night. Kids learned to edit and add recording about their family.
-
If you are French speaking, will get you connected with the French Seesaw Ts group on FB https://t.co/3Vs763m2nQ
-
-
A2 . We did it, but with a french version of each "corner" of the CLASS. Excuse m'y pour english...
-
A2 late to the . Pauline in Maine. Ss starting next week w/Seesaw Go. Hope to them post goals too.
-
I totally agree think it'd be fun as a choice
-
sorry I'm late! A1: Gabby Zimmer from sunny San Diego CA here
-
-
-
Hello all!! Finally got the red light to start using !!! Can't wait to get going with my first graders!
-
Sitting out on A3- I don't have anything to add. Just reading on.
-
-
A3. They made Mangas AND put them instead of the icΓ΄nes That I put meanwhile
-
Have any of you awesome teachers used chromebooks for seesaw go? Seems like it would be cumbersome to carry chromes around.
-
Haven't started yet:.just got last grade's devices set yesterday. I want to use it with my Digital Life Lessons.
-
they created their document in Pages using shapes. Took a screen shot added comments & updates during the year
-
-
-
A3: I haven't yet. Can they change them themselves or do teachers do it?
-
Cut out the QRs - keep Chrome in place, they walk and come back with QR then put it back
-
A3: I'm allowing my Ss to pick their own icon, or they can take a selfie to put on their icon.
-
A3 Last year I didn't realize they could be changed so we left them as randomly assigned. Rookie mistake! Def need choice.
-
-
-
A2 Early last fall my students took a photo of a fluency passage, then read and recorded their reading.
-
A3: I'm a little behind the times. What are seesaw icons? Sound intriguing!
-
That's awesome. I created a template in Buncee and added to Seesaw but haven't gotten any further yet.
-
A3. This is a great question. I would like to incorprate choice! This is especially ideal for Ss still learning their name in K.
-
-
-
A2: I plan to start next week, a little behind this year but I've got quite a bunch:)
-
-
A2: Seesaw Go! Challenge for early finishers was post a selfie + draw name
-
A3 I love the Ss picture icons!
-
-
A3. Also to be transparent, I didn't realize that the icons could be changed! On the plans for next week!
-
love to but lawnmower is calling
-
-
A3: I kept the auto icon on until Ss had a chance to see & make choice. Once someone choose to have a selfie, the fire spread. π
-
Me neither! No worries! https://t.co/YLniNWKSKY
-
-
A3. Also to be transparent, I didn't realize that the icons could be changed! On the plans for next week!
-
-
Hey Pauline! Go sounds like fun. I hope to do this as well.
-
A2 Last year video of reading bat writing at end of Oct. This year math stick designs on day 10 after Seesaw was reinstalled
-
A3: students chose an emoji in small groups- we will replace them with hand drawn self portraits after international dot day!
-
-
A3. Mangas instead of icons.
-
Yes! I find that THEY find it easier when they can look for their own picture.
-
-
-
A3- Concerns w/ selfies for icons? Any privacy issues there?
-
you guys have the best resources!
-
I can imagine. Can get carried away and lost in those. There's the student choice aspect at work.
-
A3: I tell them is magic and knows their personalities and then play up the traits of the animal. π = u take ur time!
-
A3: Next week during learning stations we are setting up a "photo booth" type station for the students to personalize a photo!
-
Right now I use the animal icons - didn't know you could personalize them!
-
Q4: How often are Ss or Ts adding to Seesaw? Tap on your calendar view, take a screenshot, and show us! https://t.co/xOoDJGglF3
-
Hey! Sorry I'm late to the party! Renee White from NC. I teach 1st grade.
-
Just joining in! Britt from Edina MN.
-
We will take you two whenever you show up!
-
Have not but the kids always rise to the occasion with most CB tasks. Worth a try to see how it goes and adapt.
-
That's a cute idea. I love it.
-
shhh, don't tell our secret!
-
-
-
-
-
I just watched this webinar last night! Can't wait to help them personalize their journals!
-
-
My kiddos are just Kindergarteners so I found some silly glasses and mustaches for them! I hope they like it!
-
A3 Most teachers in my district use the default icons. Personalizing with photos this year will be a great next step!
-
Me too, but that's the beauty of
-
-
-
A4: I add many items weekly. Spelling words,videos from class on concepts etc. Ss add at least prob 3 items a day.
-
A4: the plan is for Ss and Ts to upload weekly!
-
Love this! What did app was this?
-
-
A4: It's day 2 of using this year and we had 32 items today. Every kid added at least one! :)
-
A1: I think mindfulness is being aware of everything, your breathing, body, muscles, movement, moment. Feel it when swimming.
-
Late to but excited to catch up and join in!
-
A4: Last year my Ss added about 3 times a week. Some more. I added at least 1 time with newsletter
-
-
has a strong privacy policy. Assuming photo release permission is on file I'd imagine they would be just fine.
-
A4: I see my groups once a day every day, so at least 1-2 times per class and I post weekly
-
-
-
A4: Ss use literally all day pretty much every subject. It doesn't have to be completed beautiful proj just real S work.
-
-
A3 Iβm thinking Iβll have my reading students take a picture, draw a picture of just write title of their fav book.
-
95 items seems pretty amazing
-
-
-
-
The Chromebook camera app filters offer some variety too. Ss enjoy those.
-
-
A4. About 1 to 2 times a week. I would like to make it to three times a week per student. Ss have access, now to remind them.
-
-
I did not use Ss faces if I was going to use the blog feature
-
4: This was with my Ss last school year in May. We added something everyday, if not a few times a day. https://t.co/6sG0PjhsvE
-
A4 I'll find out some more data on this soon enough. We are going for Schools. Admin dashboard is helpful for T support.
-
I'm late but I love and use it daily with 1175 students!
-
-
-
Off topic, but I was able to send class work examples/video to a parent who needed missed work for sick child.
-
Wow! That is a lot of kids.
-
A4: I'm on my phone but every day has items. Except the 11th. π’Labor Day and weekends redeem me! π https://t.co/ZSV34qebyR
-
A4: I do choice time daily my Ss use a folder in to send their work to me and then their Ps can see what they are doing
-
-
-
-
-
A2: students added a selfie from during the second week of school
-
-
-
-
A4:We have daily S rotation for -we have 3 iPads to share.Each S gets 1/2 d once a week to upload.I upload daily as well!
-
-
-
4th gr making videos to portray character traits today.
-
Your kidβs icons are very cute.
-
Good point! In house sounds safe. Connected blogs, probably best to go another route.
-
A4: depends on the day but usually each Ss will add something daily and some will add multiple items.
-
I have 4 iPads & 3 kindles & do lots of stations & rotations so Ss put in many items from diff sub weekly.
-
-
A5: I need the answers to this one.
-
thank you! They had fun coloring them! So glad others β€οΈthe idea too! π
-
I hear you! Adjusting to the beginning of grade 1...for me and my students...Seesaw is just around the corner!
-
A5 Think about what you are already doing in your classroom & see how Seesaw can enhance it for your Ss.
-
A5: Just jump in! Try with one or two students doing something simple. Ss will pick it up SO quickly - and so will you!
-
-
How is it going being back in class?
-
-
-
-
-
A5: Slow and steady is the pace???
-
A5 Set up a test student so you can see the Ss side of
-
-
A5 I share what Ss have uploaded to Seesaw on my Smartboard occasionally helps motivate/inspire others
-
A5. Dive in, ask questions & encourage Ss ownership from the beginning. Ss can explore in small ways to build confidence.
-
A5: take the time to teach your Ss how to take a video or photo. Practice, practice, practice!
-
A5: Watch webinars! PD in Your PJs are so helpful & you get CEUs too!
-
A5: Start slow, be concise & then let go. Show kids they can get creative & still do their work.
-
A5: make a demo class to try tools out and practice, watch tutorial videos, and start small-a picture, journal, or record π
-
-
A5: as w/ all tech, play w/ it yourself so you can answer questions. For the Ks, I would say focus on one skill/tool at a time
-
Exciting challenge after 16 years! π. My kids make me laugh every day!
-
A5: Baby steps, add things a little at a time and invite Ps when U are ready
-
A5: take a deep breath and jump right in! It's been the best thing to amplify my teaching and the student engagement is amazing!
-
-
-
A5: Seesaw impacts student's lives for the better will change the way your classroom is run! This is one app your room NEEDS!
-
A5: Let the Ss be your guide.
-
A5: Roll out comments slowly so that students appreciate the opportunity for personal reflection first.
-
A5: Start w 1 tool at a time. Scan, then camera, then draw tool, etc.
-
A5: get Ps connected after you have a few items for each Ss but soon in the beginning of the year.
-
A5 Don't be intimidated! It's so user-friendly, even for littles!
-
-
. A5 have fun, let the students be creative, enjoy
-
A5 Teach a few students first, make sure they use it correctly, and make them classroom "ambassadors" to assist others.
-
A5 Never post pictures of your class QR code on social media Even if you are so EXCITED!
-
A5: use it to hear or see your Ss thinking
-
A5: make urself a Ss in your class to show little Ss what to do at first
-
A5 Follow the social media Seesaw communities (FB, Twitter, Google+) for ideas and try everything!
-
A5: +also take advantage of all the wonderful resources (for every grade level) available at https://t.co/6HxKyyBI4K.
-
I love to listen to them again in summer. Hear and notice different things.
-
A5 Jump in and start using today-there will never be a perfect time to start
-
A5 You are making us very happy with these thoughtful and encouraging responses! Proud to be part of your classrooms.
-
A5 Jump right in-last yr 2 of my reading Ss taught their classroom T how to use it. Great confidence booster for them!
-
A5 Take it one post at a time, find a moment that holds meaning to the learner
-
-
What a great idea Ss can be the best teachers
-
A5 one step at a Time. Try, retry and challenge yourself and your students. They know a lot.
-
A5: Explore together as a class! The students pick up things faster than you sometimes! try the drawing tool first
-
Love that your focus is on the learner. YES indeed! https://t.co/4uQOrH2hBq
-
-
A5 Take it one post at a time, find a moment that holds meaning to the learner
-
A5: Go at your own speed. I used this order: 1-online journal (Ss digital work) 2-Ps comm 3-workflow 4-Ss collab
-
A5 digital citizenship lesson & use of ipad 1st, then camera/ camera roll lesson. Then introduce & how 2 add 2 journal.
-
A5 Hold off on inviting parents until you decide what you want this to be. Show learning, showcase learning or Assessment.
-
-
There are so many wonderful and creative people with great ideas. Grow your PLN!
-
A5: I really enjoyed learning along with my kids. Very empowering for 8 year olds to help their 44 yr old teacher learn w/them.
-
-
A5: don't be afraid to make a mistake when first starting to use you will learn from it! Allow Ss to teach others
-
Tried with 5 Ss and willing parents. Gave me+ feedback to jump in this year and convinced about 40 or so teachers to do same!
-
-
A5: jump in! Like everything- you learn more as you go! Ss β€οΈ it!! Ps β€οΈ it even more!!
-
A5: Just play around with it. Don't be afraid so afraid of making mistakes that you don't try. Learn together!
-
A6: Last year in kindergarten, I started with likes and comments off for Ss. Ps started with likes, then added comments in Jan.
-
-
A5: Dive in and be explicit with your directions for students on how to use . Once Ss get the hang of it their {continued}
-
A6: since I have smaller groups I have comments and viewing on, I want students to collaborate and give peer feedback to work
-
A5 Take advtg of PD in PJs to gain ideas & use w something you've already planned. 2 tips. Sorry. https://t.co/nx5iEhHNqW
-
A6: I do have likes & comments on & Ss can view others work. We are getting ready to intro appropriate comments & the blog.
-
A6: S work is private. Likes and comments only from Ps and Ts. We want to get the basics down first!
-
A5: They can ALL do it!! I hate when I hear Ts say there Ss can't handle it. 1st grader teach a tech integrator last year
-
A6: not yet for students. Parents can comment and like.
-
-
hate that I am missing chat- at son's football game
-
A5: {Cont...} Ss confidence skyrockets once they know how to use it. They realize they can be so creative and they love that!
-
-
-
-
My exact thoughts. This is why Ts get on board quickly. Then can take off.
-
A6. They don't see each other work because we share our IPads.
-
OMG didn't even realize it was going on now too! Are there any hidden tips I need to know? Is cross posting possible?
-
-
A6 I do have comments and likes on. I love using this in my small groups to work on digital citizenship.
-
-
A5: spend time talking about a good Seesaw post. I had some Ss add a lot of things, I want to be a little more choosy???
-
A6: I like letting student view eachother's work! We practice giving compliments and they feel so proud of thier work!
-
Check in with the Storify later too
-
A6: parent likes and comments are on. Students are off for now.
-
Great news for me to 'hear'! Thanks! π
-
A6: right now my manage class is set almost like it was when the class was set up
-
A6: One of my best tips for new users is to make sure that "Enable item editing" is turned to ON. Couldn't do it w/o it!
-
A6: We can't like or comment yet - want to teach benefits of documenting our learning, then roll out the social learning!
-
A6: I have it all on but have only asked Ps to comment & gave them examples of good feedback to give, will start with Ss soon
-
A5 Likes and comments on, but not other's work in my K class. Need to teach Ps that their comments are for the Ss and not for me
-
