What is Google Classroom?

Google Classroom is an online platform that allows teachers and students to communicate and collaborate. Content can be created, distributed, shared, and graded--all within the virtual Classroom. *Using your school issued Chromebook makes the process of accessing and utilizing Classroom (and all other Google apps) much easier! You will use your school login credentials (username=last name, first initial, last two digits of your grad year @mr238.org. Password = student ID number plus last two digits of your grad year).

How do i access Google Classroom? This can be done two ways. One option is to go to https://classroom.google.com. All of your current Classrooms will be listed and you will also be able to join a class from this screen.

How do i access Google Classroom? The second option is to go to your grid or “waffme” and choose the Classroom app.

How do I join a Google Classroom? Again, there are two ways MRHS teachers may invite you to their Classrooms. First, your teacher may invite you to join through email. The second way a teacher may invite you to join a classroom is with a class code, or a set of numbers and letters you will enter when prompted. Click here for more details from Google’s Help center

If your teacher has given you a code, you will click on this plus sign and choose “join class”

here code class Enter After entering the code, click “join”

To put your classrooms in chronological order, simply drag and drop the classes into the correct order. (Click on the class and while holding down the mouse, move it to a difgerent location).

Announcements in Google Classroom Announcements are posts with no assignments. Teachers post them to give notices or reminder to you, the student. They will appear in chronological order.

How do Announcements apply to you? Ways your teachers could use Announcements ● Weekly events ● Welcoming a new student ● Introducing yourself ● Commenting Expectations and Accountability ● Classbuilding Opportunities and “Shout outs” ● Building background knowledge ○ (video clip of upcoming lesson or project)

More on Announcements If your teacher allows it, you can communicate with your class in the class stream in the following ways: Post information or a question to the class stream. Comment or respond to others in your class. If you do not want to post in the class stream, you can always send a private comment to your teacher on an assignment or question.
