Access Classroom
One Minute we’re dropping off kids to school, and then getting ready for dinner when we return from work. Now we’re having to create spaces for our remote work in our home and transition different areas of our house to a classroom environment. Here are steps to navigate google classroom.
What is my login information for google classroom? The teacher provides the student their LAUSD email login and password. Example: Login: thesmartfox0001@mymail.lausd.net with a password: schoolnameandyear. Doesn’t look like anything different, right? Now you need to click on “Google Classroom” next to the menu that has 9 dots in a square.
Step #2 Click View assignment
Some of the work will be attached here – see Step #3 Click to open work.
Step #5 Select Printer Destination as “Save as PDF”
Step #6 Click Save
If the file is saved as “.png” replace with”.pdf”
You can’t have two formats: png and pdf
Step #8 Name your files Example: Assignment Name_Student_Date
Step # 9 Click Save
Save Ink & Paper by Editing the document directly
The goal of saving your files as a Word or PDF is to “edit” so you can write directly on the document. Depending on what device you’re using you might have a few options.
- MAC – Open PDF file > Click Fill & Sign > Edit
- PC – Adobe Acrobat Reader > FIll & Sign > Select a File
PDF Fill & Sign – make edits directly to the saved document even if it’s an image (.png or .jpeg file)
Let your children practice using the mouse and keyboard
Save your File and Replace the previous version saved
