Sidekick is the quiet partner every teacher wishes they had, a fast, private way to capture what is really happening in your classroom and turn it into something useful. Great teaching lives in small moments. A student who finally spoke up. A seat that is always off task. A skill that half the class is still missing. Sidekick lets you note those moments in seconds, right from your phone, and then it does the remembering for you. What Sidekick does: Quick capture. Log a note about a student or the whole class in a tap or two. Weekly reports. See your week come together in a clear summary. Seat Heat. A simple heat map of your seating chart shows where engagement is strong and where it needs attention. Trends and history. Watch each student over time so patterns become obvious. Debrief. End the day or week with a focused review that helps you plan your next move. Private by design. Your notes stay on your device. Made by teachers, from The Writing Academy. Start free, and upgrade to Full when you are ready for everything Sidekick offers. Subscriptions: Sidekick Full is available as a monthly or annual auto-renewable subscription.
