Seesaw Year End Steps


This is a message for anyone currently using Seesaw in their classroom.  (If this is not you, check out Seesaw this summer.  It is an awesome tool for curating student work and capturing moments.)

It is important to archive your Seesaw Class and not delete it.  If you delete it you and your parents will no longer have access.  There is no way to undo this action.  Please don't delete students or parents from your class.  If you archive your class you can access it in the future and parents will have access to a digital portfolio modeling student growth.

Here is a short video with some helpful tips to archive your Seesaw Class.

Gmail's Mark as Unread


Often times if I need to go back to an email I just tap 'mark as unread' so it remains bold in my Gmail stream.  If you are like me you may be wondering where that option has disappeared to!  (it used to be under the 3 vertical dots)  Now you will find this option if you hover over the email when closed.  Some options will appear to the right by the email date.  The third grey option is 'Mark as read' or 'Mark as unread'.  (open envelope = mark as read; closed envelope = mark as unread)

You can also access this option when the email is open.  On the top right of the open email appears 3 vertical dots, click these dots for a menu of options including forward, print, and mark as unread.
