iCurio and Google Classroom



 Have you been using Google Classroom? Many teachers and students are enjoying the convenience of using Google Classroom to push out  and turn in assignments, to hold student resources (like rubrics, anchor charts, etc.), and to flip classrooms. Did you know that iCurio now connects to Google Classroom? You can assign any resource found in iCurio through your Google Classroom. Here is a brief video that demonstrates how to move iCurio content into Google Classroom.

Not sure how to access iCurio? Not sure how your students can access iCurio? Be sure to visit CurTech and review how to do those things.

There are a number of digital resources available in our district. Sometimes it is difficult to remember how to access them all! Go to CurTech, to the Technology Resources page and find your resource. Click on the link and you will find videos, documents, and other links that support you as you make use of these digital resources. If you still have questions, the link to the PLS form is on the HOME page of CurTech - request support and we will come and offer whatever support you need.
