Google Classroom Updates

Happy Teacher Appreciation Day!

Google has gotten into the spirit and sent a special gift to all Google Classroom users:  scheduled posts!  You can now schedule a post in Google Classroom.  Follow these steps to stay super-organized in Google Classroom!

1)  Open Classroom and click the + icon
2)  Choose "Create Assignment"
3)  Enter all of your assignment information - don't forget to add any links!
4)  Click the drop-down next to "Assign"
5)  Choose "Schedule" and choose the date/time you would like the assignment to be posted to Google Classroom

A big idea for this new feature:  Use the feature to create assignments ahead of time.  Sometimes we have additional time and are ready to create and post assignments.  This new feature will allow you to create a large amount of assignments and post them at specific times.

Check this site for a visual walk-through of these directions and more ideas for this great feature!

Before your students log into PebbleGo, spend some time exploring and discovering what is available to them.
