Oh my gosh! Their precious little voices and those little hands flipping the pages!!! Kudos on them stretching out the sounds!!!! And greetings from a middle school life skills teacher in IL!!! Excited to use this with my kiddos
I don’t know why some fools would give this a 👎 because this is excellent. We can see learning taking place in the classroom. Keep doing your thing man. From one teacher to another, I applaud your great work with the students.
Thank you so much for the support!
I agree. Your video is very helpful. I am hoping to get my colleagues on board! :)
Alison Brown I hope they get on board! It is a wonderful tool in the classroom!
Just awesome!
That is an awesome program and I loved the students work. They have learned so much and it shows. Again bravo to you and the students!👏🏽
Michelle Gay thank you! I am so proud of them!
Thanks for sharing your experiences. I love telling teachers all about Seesaw!
+Susan Hart you are very welcome! I love to share!
I started using seesaw this year. My students love it. I was able to get my reluctant reader to read by creating a chatterpix then posting it to seesaw. Great resource.
Jerry WalshII thank you for sharing. I love hearing the positive stories.
Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely love Seesaw!
SeeSaw is an amazing app. I am a big fan of it. I also use recap. I love having students explain me what they know verbally. Good work Aaron!
Matt Holley thank you sir! I will check out recap.
Greetings from Sweden! 🇸🇪 Came across your video when checking around teachers that are using Seesaw. I so want to implement this next term when I fallow my preschoolers to year 1. Thanks for the inspiration ☺️ you seem to be an awesome teacher!
Thank you so much for the kind words! You will love seesaw!
Another TX teacher RUclipsr; awesome! Thanks for talking about SeeSaw. I went to a training In the beginning of June and the presenter had us create an account but then we didn't do anything with it lol. 🤦🏽♂️ So now I'm thinking about how to utilize it at the high school level.
Bond with James it is an amazing program and super easy!
Now I want to check out Seesaw. I’m really enjoying this channel and all of your ideas :) Thanks so much for sharing :)
Thanks so much for the quick and clear explanation, Aaron!
Luke Nantz glad to help!
My son is going into an ESE first grade class. Of course it will be E-Learning. I know the school is using Seesaw. Is there a tablet you can recommend to use this app on which would make it easier for my son? I am guessing an iPad mini or iPad with the Apple Pencil for writing? Id love your feedback and guidance. Your channel and your intro to Seesaw really helped ease my anxiety as a parent. Thank you so much!!
Really informative. Thank you.
My pleasure!
Shot Bro! From New Zealand :) I am presenting an introduction to Seesaw at a conference next week and your video it actually perfect as a teachers point of view! I can't wait to get stuck in myself this year (we start school next week).
lawzanz I am glad if will be helpful! Good luck on your presentation and enjoy the year!
THIS IS AWESOME!!! Do you ever have trouble with more than one student needing/trying to use the Ipad at the same time?
Mr. Thain I have at least one iPad per table group. They have been great about sharing. They usually finish work at staggered time so it's not an issue yet.
This looks awesome! Eager to try this with my students. Can you use this with chromebooks? Or this something that only works with ipads?
+Melanie Biscardi I️ believe it also works on the chrome book!
How do you approach it when parents are anti-technology?
I applaud your enthusiasm and extra effort take a responsible digital approach. Great job!
During parent teacher conferences, I would explain to the parents why I use it and how it increases the parent/teacher/student communication. I try and answer all questions they have and most importantly, listen to them!
thanks for the blog post I going to try seesaw in my 4th&6th grade class
Tyrone Wolfe I think it will work great in all classes! Let me know how it goes.
I searched up seesaw so I can listen to the sing seesaw by suga but this came up lmao
Lol totally different. Hope it was a happy surprise.
I've been thinking of getting the g7x for a while, I think I need an upgrade lol - What do you think of it so far? :)
I absolutely love it! It is easy to use and takes great video.
When you use this during centers, does it take the students a long time to record their work before having to switch to the next center? Or do you give them like a 2 minute warning before it's time to rotate so they can begin submitting it? Thank you!
+sincbme it takes very little time. If they are just posting a picture it takes less than a min. As for rotations, I don't rotate stations. The kids have three jobs to finish at their ELAR station for the day. Then the next day the go to the next station. I have 10 stations so the rotate through them all in 2 weeks.
Aaron's Hobbies Presents thanks for the response! Do you have a video on your stations? I don't think I saw one in your list. If not, I'd like to request it lol
sincbme I talk about in some vlogs but have not done a full video. I will add that to my list!
This looks amazing! I only have Chromebooks in my classroom. I believe there is a camera on their chromebook. Any idea if this would work for my class? Thanks for your time! :)
Mrs. Szulwach you can download seesaw on google as well. web.seesaw.me/chromebook-features/
I love the portfolio aspect. Is there a chat option between teacher and parents too?
Nandi Hazziez yes! You can send messages and attachments to the whole class of parents or individual ones.
@@AaronsHobbiesPresents any chance you could do a walk through video of setting up seesaw and how to use it. there are some videos but they don't really help.
@@AaronsHobbiesPresents oh never mind, I find a good one
Is the program public for all parents to see other kid's work or can it also be private where a parent can only see their own kid's work?
Only the parents of the child can see the work. They can not see other children’s work.
I last my phone where was my kids class items in the seesaw website ,please reply me how i can get it again, thankyou
nice app. thanks a lot .
Glad you enjoyed it! I hope you are able to use it in the classroom!
Can the parent notifications be turned off while posting pictures?
I believe you can turn off parent notifications in the settings.
I use seesaw :)
great video! I'm a JK - Gr 2 music teacher. Think I can use this. Cheers...all the best
+Horace Silver enjoy!
Is there a tablet other than the IPad that works with this?
Brenda K there is also an android app.
Question: when do you implement it?
Being Mr. Garcia after I have set up stations and kids are comfortable working. I would say that week 5-6 is when I will shoot for it next year.
HI, I am curious about the whole media policy thing and FERPA with this. I do green screens with mine and love editing videos so I just want to know how.....:) I love the idea of posting it to the whole class, but I would be nervous about parent backlash. Do you get special permission for kids to be able to post their writing and recordings for the whole class? I teach second grade, and since we don't give grades yet, I could possibly still get away with it... But was wondering how you deal with that.
Lisa Church great question. Are you asking about FERPA for my videos or using seesaw? Seesaw is easy because when the kids post their work, it only goes to the child online portfolio and only the parents attached to that see it. As for my videos, if there is a name on anything, there is not a last name, and I never show my children’s faces. Does that answer your question?
No, no, no, not yours.... :). Sorry for not clarifying, using Seesaw is what I was asking about. In the video you mentioned that the kids can see each other's writing and that it helps set expectations of how they can improve or what they need to work on. 2:26 - 2:53 min of the video. So from your response, Parents can't see other kids work, but other kids can see each other work?
You are really good about making sure no P.I.I. are in the videos you share which I know isn't always easy and applaud you for that. I make these hour long End of Year videos, and always struggle with how to share them.
That does lead me to another question though since it came up and this does refer to your videos. By tagging the artists of the songs used in the description of the video is that how you can use them? Or do you have to get special permission? I was using youtube to share my EOY videos privately but they were getting flagged for Copyright. Whomp, whomp, whomp...
Lisa Church great questions! Yes, other kids can see each others work. But that would be the same as putting work up in the room or hallway. As long as there are no grades, then it’s ok. You can change the settings in Seesaw where other kids can not see other work. It’s a very adjustable program.
As for the music, I find music online that has been labeled as “fare use”. When you search in SoundCloud or google, you can specify music that can but monetized and used. Also, RUclips has a free music catalog that can be used with out fear of being flagged. If you like the music in my videos, I always link where you can get it in the description!
Ok, I think I answered that? If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask! I love to help :)
Thanks! You Are Awesome!
Lisa Church you are welcome!
FYI. The address for Seesaw is NOT seesaw.com It is seesaw.me
Carrie Raymond you are right! Thankfully they bought seesaw.com so if you go there, it sends you to the right place.
i have started this last year
lucas vlogs do you also teach kindergarten?
Can seesaw works multiple intelligence? how?
I would assume yes. You can add all sort of activities and assignments. It allows for video, audio, writing, etc.
I hate seesaw. Sorry I had to im a student in 4th grade.
Ryuga Zinda Hai I am sorry to hear that. I hope you have a great end of the year.
Thank you 😊
Clickbait
Sorry, this looks like social media in disguise. You're training/addicting the kids to posting life for self validation. If there was some discussion in this video about how to moderate device usage it would be less bothersome. .... not to mention that it appears that the instructor has to be glued to his/her device to approve/deny postings throughout the day.
The teacher can for sure wait and ok the posts at the end of the day. The social part is very much about charging what they are doing with their family. The future of work and jobs are about working socially and communicating through media creativity.
@@AaronsHobbiesPresents I'm a white collar professional in my 30's, and sorry, I disagree with you. I find your video disturbing that its being injected into a kindergartner's curriculum. Tech has its place in the classroom, but you have not convinced me that this is it.
Logi Tech well you are more than welcome to a different opinion than myself. The conversation about technology in the classroom is still a very active conversation.
@@AaronsHobbiesPresents Just a follow up, after observing how seesaw has been used for a few months in my kindergartner's classroom, I stand by my original opinion that this is social media that trains and addicts kids to posting for self validation. Maybe some teachers are utilizing it differently from you. We were given an "optional" release form that we were required to approve. This is crazy.
