Seesaw

Seesaw is a learning platform where students capture their learning and teachers to assign activities, give feedback, and communicate with families—all in one place.

Recommended grade levels: Kindergarten-5th grade

In the classroom, you might use Seesaw to: 

• Assign and collect student work

• Capture evidence of learning (photos, videos, recordings)

• Provide feedback and track progress

• Communicate with families

• Create interactive learning activities

Seesaw is a powerful way to make student thinking visible

The way your class is set up depends on your role:

Elementary Classroom Teachers (with classes in TAC): 

Your Seesaw classes are automatically created and updated through district rostering.

Support Staff (Title, ESL, Special Education, Parent Liaisons, Social Workers, School Psychologists, and others without a homeroom in TAC): 

You will need to request access to Seesaw. 

Please email susan.uram@rps205.com 

Secondary Teachers: 

Secondary access is not automatic and must be requested. 

Please email susan.uram@rps205.com
