So just start.

Let's go from left to right.

So take a look at this left hand corner.

The classes tab shows individual classes and assignments.

Next you'll see the yellow box or the the Yellow

Arrows are pointing to the activities tab.

The activities will also show in this big window here.

So then just go back and forth and then say,

You've made it into C saw.

This is what the classroom looks like.

So it says Second corps horse A.

That is the classroom that this student is in the

activities button is in light blue, and it says activities

on top of the column.

This is how you know that this is the assignments

that need to be done, and the pink boxes shows

that the classes tab shows individual individual classes and assignments

in the yellow box that says activities can be found

under the activities tab and will appear in the main

home page window.

There is an inbox.

You'll find a teacher announcement in the impact, and sometimes

that's where a teacher will pin something like a zoom

link will be right in there.

The journal is also available to take notes and communicate

with your teacher, but find out what your teacher is

using to communicate with because some teachers might email you

on synergy or use classroom dojo.

Yeah, for a clean, completing assignment for completing assignment.

Once the activity is done, you are required to click

at a response, and that will bring up the homework.

It looks like this.

The slide shows an example of a work assignment is

this one has a video attached to it on the

side. You can see the tools that you can use

to help complete the assignment.

So on this particular assignment, the teachers asked me to

listen to that video and then to do something with

it. The small tea with the circle is you're adding

text box and then you're going to type into a

text box.

There is a microphone that the student can just click

on and talk.

You can add pictures if I need to write something

on paper, and I can hold my paper up and

take a picture of my homework assignment.

Some students find that easier to do and also at

the bottom.

There's a caption that is that when you click on

that gives you a place to type in and to

say something about the homework.

Um, sometimes I'm a parent, so I will use that

caption to put maybe a little note that it's something

I want the teacher to make note of there.

So that's another way I use that function to communicate

with the teacher.

Teach your communication.

It is important if you are having questions or problems

for the virtual learning, Please don't hesitate to reach out

to the teacher.

If you need assistance, you can contact our program well.

Then contact us.
