Google Classroom

We will be using Google Classroom as a learning platform as we continue ongoing learning from home. Below is a brief introduction to Google Classroom and how students in Grade 3/4 at Lake Bonavista School will be accessing the tool. 

Google Classroom 

Google Classroom is an online platform that enables us to communicate with our students as well as assign and distribute tasks. Google Classroom gives us the ability work with our students in safe, manageable, and appropriate way. It will also help students manage their work while learning from home. Students will access Google Classroom using their CBE G Suite ID (username@educbe.ca). As we begin to use these new teaching and learning tools, we will work with our students and their families to help them understand both the benefits and risks of using online tools.

Accessing Google Classroom for the First Time

Google provides excellent resources to help with signing into Google Classroom and joining a class, along with other supports. ▪ How do I sign in to Classroom? ▪ Join a class as a student ▪ Troubleshooting for students

Join a class as a student

To use Classroom, you need to sign in on your computer or mobile device and then join classes.

Then, you can get work from your teacher and communicate with your classmates.
When you join a class on one device, you're enrolled in that class on all devices.

How to join a class

Our classroom code is: mxoriwn 

You have 2 ways to join a class:

• 1) Join a class with a class code—If your teacher gives you a class code,
• use this code to add yourself to the class. Your teacher might give you the code while
• you’re in class or email it to you.
• 2) Accept an invitation from your teacher—If your teacher sends you an invitation,
• you’ll see Join on the class card on your Classroom homepage.

Forgot or lost the class code? Code won't work?

If you deleted, lost, or forgot the class code before joining a class, ask your teacher to resend
the code or set a new one. If the code isn’t working, ask your teacher for help.

Note: You only use the class code once to join the class. You are then enrolled in the class,
and you don't need to re-use the code again.
