Second grade students are growing in their ability to read and write, which means that they are able to follow directions that contain text. This means that you can utilize more creative and multi-step activities that allow students to showcase their learning in a variety of ways.
Students at this age should be comfortable using the camera as well as Seesaw's built in tools. This means that students can share and reflect on their work more regularly.
This can also be a great age to develop creative presentation skills, whether through video or slides on Seesaw.
Making visuals: Students should be comfortable with tools for organizing digital content like PicCollage. These types of activities can become more frequent as students develop independence, allowing students more time to express their knowledge and creativity.
Presentations: Take the skills that they have used in isolation, such as searching for images, creating visuals, typing text, etc. and go a step further. A tool like Book Creator can be an easy entry point for students to create multi-slide presentations that are media-rich.
Connecting: Students' understanding of the world is often limited at a young age. What is outside our school, city, state, and country? This can be a great time for students to connect with others and share experiences, growing their sense of community.
