Seesaw for Dual Language Immersion
Seesaw equips Dual Language Immersion (DLI) classrooms with accessible tools and flexible content to differentiate instruction and foster culturally-responsive classrooms that drive academic growth and language acquisition.
Evaluate Both Language Proficiency and Subject-Area Knowledge
Accessible and intuitive multimodal assessments promote student voice and choice, providing powerful insights into pupils’ literacy skills in both languages, without sacrificing insights into pupils’ comprehension of academic content.
Differentiate Instruction for Every Learner
Add visuals, modelling, audio directions, and other scaffolds to support on-year level instruction.
Support Balanced Language Practice
Provide opportunities for pupils to practise listening, speaking, reading, and writing their languages in multiple formats to promote comprehensive bilingual language development.
Show Evidence of Student Learning in Both Languages
Capture digital and hands-on learning in Seesaw to monitor student growth over time, to provide pupils an authentic audience for their work, and to help pupils build awareness of their own strengths and skills.
Foster Strong School-Home Partnerships
Families view work in real-time from any device. Inclusive two-way communication with automatic translation into 100+ home languages helps keep every family in the learning loop.
Adaptable Lessons Available in English and Spanish
Thousands of intentionally designed, standardsaligned activities are ready to assign as is, or can be quickly customised to meet student needs. Each lesson provides student directions in English and Spanish.
