Thank you for your responses.  We are going to use Seesaw starting Monday.  I will look at the webinars, but is this a closed system where parents create a log in?  Then is it possible to read aloud to students, either live, or by posting a video?  I'm thinking about whether I could read the COCBA books (if I could get them from the school) to students.

Thanks,

Elaine

Hi all - for K-2 we are using Seesaw and specials teachers are co-teachers in the classroom teacher's Seesaw classroom to make it easier for families. We do have Seesaw school wide.

3-5 we are using Google Classroom and specials teachers are co-teachers on those as well.

Trying to use what the kids were already using.

Best, Jenny

What do you mean by a "grid".  We are trying to figure out how to best distribute the learning for specials.  Right now, Each teacher has a Google Classroom and the Specials are sharing one Classroom.

We sent home packets for K-5 with two weeks worth of work on March 13. Beginning tomorrow, we are starting distance learning. K-2 are using Seesaw, 3-5 are using Google classroom. A grid was developed for each grade level and the “specials” teachers will add their things to the grids to be pushed out to the classes by the classroom teacher. We’ll see how it goes.

Anyone know about/use  365 Teams?  is that a distance learning tool?  Sounds more like a staff collaboration tool.

My district is looking at that as well as Seesaw.

How are elementary schools handling distance learning?

Before we closed on Mar 13, our teachers (and myself) were asked to create 2 weeks of lessons that could be posted on our portal and printed in packets for parents to pick up at Central Office.  Now we are in the next stage of closure.

What methods are your schools using?

Thank you
