TRIMESTER ONE

My Goal in SeeSaw

In this introductory activity, students will learn to use the drawing tool. They can start with a blank canvas, draw on top of photos they take, or draw on a template you provide. The drawing tool also allows students to add text labels.

As a large group, gather and discuss goals as a class.
Give students time to set their own goal and then talk with a partner.
After students have chosen a goal, they document it by completing this activity.

CVC Word Building

This is a great activity to use at an independent literacy station. This is all completed inside the drawing tool in Seesaw with one post.

Students will be recording, pausing, erasing, and writing so I would highly recommend modeling this activity for your students first.
In the example portion of the activity, you can watch a video of a finished student sample.

SeeSaw at Open House!

Put iPads or Chromebooks out at Open House so that students can complete this activity with their family.
Post this Activity in advance with a note to parents so that they can do the activity from home if they are unable to attend Open House.
Click on the activity to save it.
If you prefer to have families use their own phones, then have students make a journal post that families could leave a comment on and simply print out the QR codes to student assignments. Directions are below.

Here are some helpful tips as you end your school year with SeeSaw and get ready for Open House:

How do we print out thumbnails and QR codes for a student’s entire journal for Open House? (note should NOT be done in color at 12￠ per page and set printing to print 9 pages on one page)
How do I get a QR code for a Seesaw post?
How do I tell viewers what to do with the QR code?
How do families and students download an archive of student work?
How long do families have access to their child’s Seesaw journal?
