Creating your own activity

Log in and go to the Activities tab

Log into your account and click on the Activities tab.

If you have more than one classroom in your account, you'll need to click on the classroom that you want to assign your activity to, and then click on the Activities tab.

Click on Create a New Activity

Create your activity

Now enter the title of your activity and any instructions that you have for your students.

You can also include a template comic, which your students will use as a starting point for their activity. Choose an existing template from your personal comic library, or click Create a Comic to make one fresh. Note: Including a template comic is optional.

When you're done, click the Save Activity button.

Assign your activity

After you save your activity in the previous step, you'll be able to see the activity as it will appear to your students.

If you're ready to assign it, click Assign Activity. If you'd like to go back and edit your activity, scroll to the bottom of the page and click the Edit button.

If you'd like to assign your activity later, just come back to the Activities tab and find it again in the 'Unstarted activities' notice in the grey box on the left side of the screen (not pictured above).

Learn how to review your students' progress and completed activity work.
