For the past few years I have created templates that my students (and others across the world) have used for different purposes in learning. Number knowledge, addition, subtraction, spelling practice, word of the week and more! I still have them in seperate slides but really wanted to find a way of making it easier for others to access. So i put them together in one place >> bit.ly/mrspriestleyictseesawlibrary Check it out if you're looking for some templates to use in Seesaw! I've come across lots of teachers asking how to get Seesaw started or set up in your school. Obviously every school is different and will look different to each teacher. But it is always important to have consistent expectations that teachers know, understand and agree to to ensure consistency across the school. At my school, we first rolled it out across a few classrooms to test it out, gain feedback and see how students experienced it within their learning. Then we rolled it out school wide. But we needed to get some expectations to ensure teachers knew what was expected of them with this new technology being introduced. So we gathered as a staff meeting and really unpacked what it will look like, what was reasonable to begin with for teachers and students, and what the learning being shared would look like. Our expectations were written into an online policy guidelines so that teachers were clear about what was happening. Our expectations for 2018: To have two posts minimum a term Can be in any curriculum area Can be individual or group based post It must have a WALHT or SC. This will help parents understand what the post is about and what learning was happening. There was also guidelines about what happens if students were to post inappropriate things, places for questions and also conferences. This really helped me (ICT Lead Teacher) and other teachers be clear about what was happening when using Seesaw. If you would like to view this document as a Google doc please view it here. Please see my other Seesaw blog posts for other areas of implementation that can help you get Seesaw started in your school! I am always looking for new ways of getting students engaged and using Seesaw in a meaningful way. The opportunities with Seesaw are really limitless and thats what makes it so great to use in any classroom! My new Seesaw resources adapts one originally created by @mickie_mueller/@tracipiltz; which I have then modified for a reading and maths type contract activity! You can find the original here. The aim is for students to use it as a reading or maths contract over a week, and share evidence of their learning using the different tools Seesaw offers! The great thing is this can be adapted or changed to suit your students needs or levels! Perfect for any age. Each contract has five activities or ways students can document or show evidence in their learning. The reading contract is aimed around a book or study for the week, and the maths could be used for gathering evidence over a longer period of time or time focusing on a particular strategy. Both of these are customizable, just make a copy of the template and make changes that suit your class! Find the contracts here! Do your students use Seesaw for recording? I was on the Seesaw facebook page the other night and saw someone requesting a self assessment rubric or chart for their students to use. So I just finished making this one for teachers and students to use! In my classroom we currently have a self assessment scale with the three colours: I can do it, I'm getting there, I need some help. This rubric ties into that so it all aligns for my class. You can download a copy of this for yourself and your classroom here: Seesaw Recording Self Assessment Rubric There is also a blank version for you to add your own self assessment pictures or codes to. You can download a copy of that one here: Seesaw Recording Self Assessment Rubric blank Seesaw is the bomb and I have worked on creating loads of templates for teachers to use alongside Seesaw to share different parts of their learning. There are some for literacy (reading and writing) and also maths. The link to all the Seesaw templates are in my Google Drive that I have shared as part of this website. It has loads of other resources in it, but the Seesaw ones are also a big part of it!
