Hi everyone!!! Ill be talking about the app called Seesaw on this post. Seesaw is an application for both students and teachers to use. Today was my first time using this app so I'll give you my 100% honest opinions. First you have to sign up and I did sign up as a teacher to give a better review. After the signing up process, you are ready to have a class, activity. As you can see you have to the grade of your students then you can post student work or an activity. I tried my first activity on the app. To be honest, it was hard until i figure out the links and attachments.

You can use videos, games, slides, podcasts, apps and animations. This attempt was a failure for me but i still wanted to share it for you so that you can also make a use of this app. It's called Toontastic. You can create your own scenes or use the ones that are given by the app. You can make your own person ( ngl it's really fun). Then you can use everything to teach what you have in mind. Let's take a look into mine. It's not the best but i promise it's really helpful. I made a scene in a school where students have a knowledge about fruits/vegetables and how to describe objects. So the teacher introduces two fruits/vegetables at every scene and asks students to describe them. With this animation i wanted to make students learn about fruits and vegetables in a f
