Seesaw
We has chosen Seesaw as an interface to extend your child's classroom into the home, as, we believe it offers an all encompassing platform which is simple, user friendly and most importantly, effective at keeping in touch with pupils whilst at home.
Seesaw provides a safe and easy way to support learning beyond the classroom and can be accessed from any computer or mobile device with internet capabilities. It allows the children to:
-
Receive and return learning.
-
Participate in class or group discussions; these are monitored by the teacher and children cannot send private messages to each other.
-
Communicate directly with the teacher to ask questions and get help with learning.
-
Keep track of important due dates, events and tasks.
-
Access files, links and resources provided by the teacher.
Teachers will be able to give targeted feedback on the children’s actual work. This can be in the form of annotations such as jottings, text notes or voice feedback which has a more personal feel. Seesaw enables the children to submit the work through a variety of media including: photos, videos, text, editing worksheets directly on the app. Children are also able to add their own voice to a piece of work.
All children will have access to a Seesaw account.
