Watching how some other teachers are creating content on Seesaw activities gives me some ideas on how to design some for myself.

We do something fun on Zoom every day & I change it up regularly! Some of our favorite games:

Pictionary: I send the illustrator a word in the chat, they share their screen, everyone else guesses IN THE CHAT, who ever guesses first is the illustrator next

Charades: same style as Pictionary, but pin their video

Boggle: everyone turns off their video and changes their name to the first letter of their name. We see how many words we can make in a minute with the letters.

Mystery Bag: I put an object in a bag, students play 20 questions until they get it! Guesses go in the chat, questions are called on out loud. This has also been a great way to engage other teachers who join our Zoom meetings.

Where’s Waldo: Share my screen with a picture of a Where’s Waldo page.

Quizlet.live now has an individual version that is great!

Scavenger Hunt: I say “Go find something purple, yellow, round, square..etc. and everyone comes back with something.

I want them to know they have an audience!
- Seesaw voice/text comments-- give them something specific to do and follow up with.
- Comment back and forth in Google Docs for writing support just like in the classroom (ELL, Title, and I all comment on their writing)
- Flipgrid video responses to their posts

We watch body cues, and we monitor when we are face to face and pivot right then and there. Reflection comes after the lesson. I ask them for their feedback every lesson, every day, every week.

We are all learning and experience this new situation TOGETHER. It is okay to fail, it is what you do with that failure that counts.

On Seesaw (or other forms), students can make a video of themselves asking a question for the class to discuss for their Morning Circle. Teachers can post to the entire class to answer as comments.

Robert Marzano: Give feedback while students have time to improve.
John Hattie: Struggling students benefit most from immediate feedback. Experienced students do better with delayed feedback.

Feedback done well can boost student results by 27 percentile points!

Wow! Julia had foresight and took pictures of the school, the playground, library, our classroom so when she is in her zoom office hours she can pop a school picture in!

Keep Record to use for Reflection and Communication

# data[].attributes.body
I have a Google Sheet for each of my students where I record what assignments they tried, completed, or didn't begin. I use these records to assist in my reflection - especially for those who are not engaging. What can I do to get them on Zoom? How can I encourage them to turn in Seesaw assignments? What extra help or guidance might they need?

I do keep record of Zoom participation, but it is not reflected on this sheet. I keep that on a piece of paper with a class list so I can easily take record during meetings.

1. go slow to go far: say each child's name. Welcome them!
2. Center student experience:share their stories, strategies, triumphs.
3. Model enthusiasm, model vulnerability
4. Experience joy! Play games! Community circles themes-make it silly and fun!

-Voice comments so students hear vocabulary, pronunciation, fluency, etc. Go slow and take your time so they can hear it clearly since they can't see your mouth.
-Written comments so students can see spelling, accent, print form. And the skills transfering to and from reading.

Is there an activity or lesson students will be doing this week that parents might need background information on? I create a short video-flubs and all-to let them know about the concept or activity.

This is all new to parents, too, so why not send them a "shout-out"? Record a little video saying "good job" or "hope everything is going well" and send it out to your parents. I record mine and send it as an announcement in Seesaw.

# data[].attributes.body
It's hard when students are doing their lessons in the paper packet provided by the district (Beaverton School District) and not as a Seesaw lesson. I don't know who is doing what, whether they are being successful, or if there is anything I can do to support them. In person check ins via Zoom ("how is your work going?") always result in a shrug or "fine".

# data[].attributes.body
Am I the one doing all the talking?  If so, I consider the lesson a fail. I teach 1st grade and lecture style teaching is not my thing.  If I cannot get kids engaged or interacting with me or the content, then I go back to the drawing board and try to figure out how to tweak the next lesson to try to get kids talking.

# data[].attributes.body
I provide a lot more supportive feedback on lessons for students who I know need it. Students that are pretty secure academically that turn in assignments that are incomplete or where they did not challenge themselves, I tend to send these assignments back (my assignments are pushed out through Seesaw). Whenever I send back an assignment, I always include a positive ("I see you did a great job on so-and-so") and then I explain the reason why the assignment is being returned to them ("but the lesson had 2 parts. Go back and complete part 2."). Sometimes students go back and challenge themselves, other times I just have to accept is as is.

Other platforms? More fine motor friendly apps we can look into for next year? Teach parents how to handle their student and technology when it isn't for games or fun - but academics.

Office Hours for me, a 1st grade teacher, were, and have been, pretty much a bust. The first 2 days of office hours, I had students come just to hang out! In those first few days, we did hang out (I wanted to support them socially and emotionally), but then as our Zoom groups and class meetings began, I had to tell the kids that Office Hours were for questions, support, or talking to me. Not just hanging out. Of the 30 or so Office Hour slots I've had since this all began, I have had 1 parent come and ask a question.
