Seesaw

Seesaw is a a digital portfolio platform where students can create or upload work into their journal. This journal is a place where teachers, parents, and even the student themselves, can review, comment, and watch growth on their work throughout the year. Teachers can assign activities for students to complete, or it can be as simple as telling students to document any experiences that they are proud of. It is easily used in the classroom, as well as for remote learning.

Things to know:

  • There are TWO seesaw apps. Seesaw Class and Seesaw Family. During a regular attendance year, children will work out of Seesaw Class and parents will log into Seesaw Family at home to see work and communicate with teachers. For Remote Learning, it is recommend to limit it to the Seesaw Class version only to avoid confusion between the 2.

  • Teachers can assign Activities (assignments) to the whole class, small groups, or individual students.

  • There is an enormous amount of grade leveled, free activities in the Activity Library.

  • Teachers can import other programs into Seesaw, such as Google Docs, Google Slides, Word, Power Point...etc

  • Children can also use various creating apps (Pic-Collage, Shadow Puppet, Word Cloud, etc...)and "AppSmash" them into their Seesaw Journal.

  • Activities can be organized into folder to help organize your resources.

  • You can attach Standards (Skills) to an activity, which then can be graded with a 1-4 rubric (red, yellow, green) and can then be viewed in grade book form.
