We are giving it a try this year and it is turning out to be SO fun! You need to register and be approved by me :) Then, you can see your child's posts....it is fun! But, please know we are just trying it- they are perfect with using it yet- and neither am I. So, please be patient and understanding! And, please feel free to send them comments on their work- that is one of the coolest parts! Hope you enjoy getting a peak into their day! Use this link to register: https://app.seesaw.me/s/727-935-786 "Book in a Bag" Please be sure to spend a bit of time reading and rereading the books your child brings home in the yellow envelope. They are taking the responsibility of choosing their books to bring home to show you. Just a few minutes each night can make a big difference. Don't forget about Raz-Kids too! This is a great resource of leveled books. We don't get to spend much of our class time on the app, but it is a really beneficial reading app for your child! Give it a try if you haven't! |
