I am currently an Instructional Technology Resource Teacher (ITRT) for two elementary schools in Winchester, Virginia, United States. Prior to this position, I served as an elementary school librarian for five years, a third grade teacher for five years, and a special education inclusion teacher for second and fifth grade.
This is my first year using iEARN. My students and I have enjoyed making connections with students from other countries, including China, Scotland, Russia, and Moldova.
Session Description
This session will provide a brief introduction to Seesaw, including what it is and real-life examples of how it can be used in the classroom. Seesaw empowers students to independently document their learning with built-in creative tools, and provides an authentic audience for their work. Seesaw saves teachers time on organization and parent communication, makes formative assessment easy, and provides a safe place to teach 21st Century skills.
