Editor's Notes
- Give the participants a quick run through the agenda for the workshop.
- Play video to give background knowledge to participants of the many uses in the kindergarten classroom.
- Discussion prompt: How does this quote relate to the current method of one-on-one assessment vs. using the SeeSaw e-portfolio method?
- Play and pause video as needed to assist in participants in Teacher Account and Class List creation.
- On this slide, example the importance of using the shortcut icons. The shortcuts will insert the needed icon into the directions for non-readers to be able to understand the written directions.
- Hand out the list of Report Card Standards & SeeSaw Activities Shortcuts. Click on the SeeSaw logo to login to the Teacher Account to demonstrate the creation steps for an activity that focuses on a reading standard. After the creation of activity, continue with the steps of sharing it with the class list.
- Participants can review the process by using the checklist. Verify that each participant has completed each step of the checklist.
- Participants will use the list of Report Card Standards to select a math standard. They will refer to the SeeSaw Activities Shortcuts to create icons. Use the Teacher Account to demonstrate the creation steps for an activity that focuses on a math standard. After the creation of activity, continue with the steps of sharing it with the class list.
- Participants can use the checklist to review the process. Verify that each participant has completed each step of the checklist.
