Access to SeeSaw, our new learning platform, is via the Pupil Resources page and is presented alongside a number of other resources (like Times Table Rock Stars). You can access all this whenwe have explained some key points on this page.

Please use the pupil user guide for screenshots to help you to log on and find the different sections of the platform. You will find this on the next page. Your username and password will will be emailed to your parent / carer separately. Please read the instructions carefully rather than post lots of questions to your teacher – we are getting used to the system too.

Where to go when you have logged on:

• Check the inbox for announcements from your teacher to welcome you and give you any important updates.
• Check the journal area for whole class messages from your teacher. Please be aware your teacher and your class can see your comments here.
• Check the activities area for suggested work activities and to respond to the work if needed. Only you and your teacher will be able to comment to each other in activities.

When activities will be posted

On a Monday you will receive a project to complete throughout the week. This is a set of suggested activities on a theme. You do not have to do them all and can be as creative as you like. You can use your project book from school to write in. If you have done something special you are very proud of you can share this as a photo on the SeeSaw learning platform.

By 5PM each day, you will have activities for Guided Reading, English and Maths posted by a teacher ready for the next day. Please use the answer sheets provided for Maths and Reading. You may want to send comments if you are having difficulty, otherwise you can use the support of an adult at home or the answers to help you. If you have understood the work and are happy with your answers, you do not need to send anything back. Your teacher may ask you to respond in a specific way (e.g. in the notes or comments section) but they will tell you if you need to.

How your teacher will respond

Your teacher may ‘like’ any work you post. If they need to add notes or comments they will do so, but they may not provide feedback on every piece of work. Teachers will try to respond within two working days.

How you should be using Seesaw

Please remember that Seesaw is a learning platform and is not social media. These are our school rules for Seesaw:

Online Safety

It's important for you to stay safe when working online. We recommend that you visit the Thinkuknow website as part of your learning. There are resources for children of all ages and parents too.

When you understand what we have explained above, then you can proceed to access SeeSaw and our other home learning resources.
