SeeSaw: investigating seesaw as activities providers. I spent some time locating interesting and engaging resources. I trialed the first activity "What is the main idea and what are 3 supporting details from the text. The students then watched the video and answered 5 questions.
 This scaffolding led me to introduce the ALL programme. The students were taken out and introduced to the task coming up.

Things to be Thankful For! The next Seesaw activity is allowing for 
presentation of their findings, and the use of audio to suppliment it. Response so far is 
very good.
