What is Google Classroom?

Google Classroom is your child’s digital link to learning.

It enables teachers to post learning tasks and materials to support your child’s learning, as well as newsletters and much more!

Google Classroom can be accessed from an iPad, laptop, PC or mobile device anywhere and at anytime.

Getting Started!

Setting up Google Classroom is easy. Use your child’s school iPad to follow these simple steps.

From the Home Screen locate the Google Classroom icon.

This will already be downloaded on your child’s iPad and set to your child’s Prescot Primary email address.

eg john.smith@prescotprimary.org.uk

The Stream

The Stream is the main page of Google Classroom where teachers will post announcements, newsletters, images (similar to a Facebook News Feed or Twitter Feed).

Pupils can be given permission to make comments on streams too, however this is not always the case.

Assignments

Sometimes teachers will post useful resources on the Stream, but sometimes they may set ASSIGNMENTS instead.

Assignments will appear in the Stream, but the best place to access them is on the CLASSWORK page.
