Once your mouse cursor is there you'll see a dropdown menu. Look for the Google Classroom link.

You can also access Google Classroom from many personal devices such as laptops, tablets, or sometimes even gaming systems.

The easiest way to access Google Classroom is through a district-provided Chromebook.

Once you login to the Chromebook using a student ID and password, you will see an icon for Google Classroom at the bottom middle of the screen.

The icon for Google Classroom is a green square with a white silhouette in it.

Once you click on this icon, you'll find a home screen for Google Classroom.

On the home screen for Google Classroom you'll see the classes your student is enrolled in.

These classes can be rearranged by clicking on the title of a class and dragging it and dropping it to rearrange the classes.

Now let's take a look around Google Classroom and explore some of the pages and features available to you.

To access a specific Google Classroom, you'll need to click on the title of the classroom.

Once you click on the title for the classroom, you will be taken to the stream page.

The stream page has announcements posted by the teacher in chronological order.

That means the newest announcement will be posted at the top of the page.

Next, we have the Classwork page.

The Classwork page has assignments posted by the teacher. You will start with assignments like attendance tracking.

These are short forms that must be completed every day to track student attendance while online learning.

Next, you'll find important information like need to know contact information, schedules for Google Meets, tutorial times, and other important things.

You can look on the left-hand side of the screen to see all of the topics available and select a specific topic to jump to that topic.

Once you jump to that topic, you'll be able to see all of the assignments that are posted within that topic.

If you want to go back to all topics, simply click on "All Topics" at the top of the page.

From the Classwork page, you can also view a list of assignments by clicking on "View Your Work."

When you click on "View Your Work," you'll be taken to another page where you have a list of assignments as well as due dates.

You can also access Returned ITems that may have been graded or missing assignments by clicking on the labels on the left-hand side of the screen.

To get back to the Classwork page, click on the title of the Classroom and then Classwork.

From this Classwork page you can also access your Google Meet that's tied to your Google Classroom and view a Google Calendar with assignments listed by date.

These are some of the most important features of Google Classroom.

They allow you to see the assignments, assignments by the due date, assignments that have been returned, and access contact information for the teacher.

If you have finished working in one of your Google Classrooms and you would like to switch to another Google Classroom for another content area or another teacher simply go to the top left corner of the screen and click on the three-line (hamburger) menu.

Once you click on the menu then select Classes and you will be returned to the Google Classroom home screen.

From here you can select the title of any Google Classroom and you will be taken to that classroom.
