Teacher Notes (not visible to students)

When students use the microphone tool and add their voice to Seesaw posts you the teacher gain deeper insight into their thinking. It’s one of the easiest ways for learners to tell you what they know. This is a great activity to do right after students finish writing a story. Students take a photo of their writing and tap the microphone to read their writing. This makes it easy for you to see and hear how your emergent writers are connecting letters, sounds, concepts of print, and reading. To do this activity with students… 1.
