Primary Lesson Samples
Katie Leftin created a hyperdoc/smashboard that organizes the work of her students each day.
She uses Google Slides with embedded videos she made in Clips and images to show what students need to do. Students touch the topic and go to a page with a description of what to do.
When published to the web, Slides can be inserted into Seesaw as a link.
This helps her students work more independently through their work.
Check out the template here. If you click File you can make a copy.
This is a sample lesson plan for first grade.

Stephanie Perkins organized a week's worth of writing instruction using Google Slides and Clips videos. When published to the web, it acts as a mini webpage.
She published the content to the web, and copied and pasted the published link into Seesaw as a Journal entry for her students.
Students can work through the steps daily at the suggested pace, or if they are faster at writing, they can work through things quicker.
The writing format is based off of a Teachers Pay Teachers template by Jodi Durgin.
