Using Emojis as Labels in Seesaw

In December, Seesaw added the ability for teachers and students to label pictures and drawings. These text labels are great for having students sort and identify. If you haven't used labels yet, here is a link to a short labeling tutorial.

Some of us have asked about the option of adding pictures that students can move like the labels. The Seesaw engineers are taking this suggestion under consideration. But for now, you and your students can use Emojis in the labels to serve as pictures. See examples below (reminder: students can also record themselves as they move the emojis to explain their thinking).
