In a kindergarten classroom, technology is intentional, supervised, and it provides an opportunity to build school-to-home connections. We are conscious of concerns about screen time and make sure to use technology with purpose and with moderation.
Applications like Seesaw, a student driven digital portfolio, are used to provide a window into our classroom, and answer that age-old question, “What do you do all day in school?” We frequently post photos of classroom events through Seesaw and later in the year the kindergartners themselves post work and create content on Seesaw. Many families love to see updates of what their child is doing in school and find it easier to start conversations with students about their learning.
