Seesaw, an elementary learning platform, has launched a new K–5 writing curriculum developed with literacy expert Dr Wiley Blevins. The programme, called Seesaw Writing with Wiley Blevins & Friends, includes over 750 standards-aligned activities, mentor author videos and scaffolded supports covering sentence writing, grammar, genre writing and functional writing skills. The research-based curriculum integrates writing craft, text structure, syntax and transcription. It leverages Seesaw's multimodal tools, allowing students to express themselves through voice, video, drawing and text. The programme is designed to supplement existing curricula whilst providing structured writing instruction. Seesaw and Blevins will host a two-part webinar series beginning 23 April to support educators in implementing the new curriculum. The first session takes place on 23 April, with a second scheduled for 6 May.

Seesaw, a leading learning experience platform for primary education, has launched a full Arabic version of its platform for students, teachers and families across the Middle East and North Africa. The platform features complete right-to-left functionality and integrated AI tools for classroom activities and literacy support. Through a strategic partnership with Little Thinking Minds, an Arabic literacy solutions provider, Seesaw now offers curriculum-aligned content including reading programmes for native and non-native speakers, plus benchmark assessments. The launch aligns with regional education transformation initiatives including Saudi Vision 2030 and Qatar National Vision 2030. The Arabic platform aims to save teachers time whilst enabling students to learn in their first language, supporting foundational literacy and early-years education across the MENA region.

Seesaw has acquired MENA-based edtech startup Little Thinking Minds to enhance its global learning solutions. This acquisition will integrate Seesaw's interactive technology with Little Thinking Minds' Arabic literacy curricula, expanding Seesaw's reach in the MENA region. Little Thinking Minds, founded in 2004, previously raised a Series A investment led by Algebra Ventures, with participation from Mindshift Capital, Al Turki Ventures, and the ISSF Fund.
