Google Classroom Guardian Summaries

  • Google Classroom Guardian Updates:
    Google Classroom LogoStay connected with what's being assigned and your student's activity on Google Classroom. Google Classroom has a great feature that allows you, as a guardian, to receive email summaries about your child's work. Your child's teacher will send you a guardian invitation to the primary email you provided at registration, or you may email your child's teacher to provide them with the email address you'd like to use.
     
     
    What's included in an email summary?
    Missing Work: Any work that was not turned in at the time the summary was sent.
    Upcoming Work: Work that's due today and tomorrow (for daily emails) or that's due in the upcoming week (for weekly emails).
    Class Activity: Announcements, assignments, and questions recently posted by teachers.

    2. In your email program, open your email invitation.

    3. Click Accept. If you’re not the guardian, click I’m Not The Guardian.
