“Create a Class.”
3. Complete the required form and click
the “Create” button.
4. Have students join your class either by
entering the class code they will see in their
educreations account
or by going directly to the link that will be
provided here:
*Note- The #s for your students and classes will
not be the same as the ones seen here.
5. Students who have not signed in before may be asked to create an account. This does not require an email address, but does require students to enter a unique username and a password.
6. Students are now entered into your class and are ready to begin.
Students begin on the class group page. They should click the individual student icon to get started. It will turn blue.
7. Students can begin their first lesson by clicking on the + sign. A new lesson window will open.
