Assigning an activity to your students

How to find an activity and assign it to your class

Log in and go to the Shared Activities library

Log into your account and click on the Activities tab. If you have more than one classroom, you'll need to first click on the classroom that you'd like to assign an activity to before the Activities tab will appear.

Next, click on the Shared Activities button to see a list of hundreds of pre-made student activities, sorted by grade.

Choose an activity that suits your curriculum goals

You should now be on the Shared Activities page, as pictured above. By default, you'll see a list of every activity in the library, sorted by popularity.

Use the drop-down menus on the left to help you filter the list of shared activities - just click on the 'down' arrow and select the grade range and subject you're targetting. Then hit the Search button.

Once you find the activity you'd like to assign, click on the title (step 4 above).

Review and assign the activity

Completing the previous step will load a detailed description and student instructions for the activity you chose. This is how the activity will appear to your students. If you would like to assign this activity, click the 'Assign to my students' button.

When your students log in, they will be notified that this activity has been assigned to them. They can then click on this notification to begin their activity. When they're finished, they can submit it to you. The next time you log in, you'll be able to see your students' progress and will be notified when activities are submitted.
