How to Complete an Assignment in Edmodo

Here are directions on how to complete an assignment in Edmodo. I also added a page under the page list of the same name. It is a PDF with pictures that you can download to your computer.

How to complete an assignment in Edmodo:

1. Go to Edmodo.com and log in.

     a. In the username space enter your child’s username. In the password space enter the password.

               i. Username will usually be lastname(all lowercase) then first initial, and birthday(if necessary). Students             should have written it down but you may email Mr. Thomas for the information.

               1.       Example: smithj0415

                 ii. Password for all students is abc123

2.  Once you have logged in, you may have to scroll down a little to the current assignment.

3.  Click the Turn In button. It is very important that you hit the Turn in button, otherwise it will not register that I received the assignment.

4.  Depending on the assignment you may have to:

     a. Watch a video and answer questions that are in the post.

     b. Take a quiz.

     c. Respond to a question a post.

                i. Sometimes Mr. Thomas will post study guides for students so they may prepare for a test or have        more information about something we talked about in class. Students can either print them out or use the     Backpack function within Edmodo to save them to study for later. These are not for grades but will help   your child in class.

5.  Below the post, you should see the words that say Type your response here. This is where you will put in the answers for any questions.

     a.  If it says Type your reply, then you did not hit the turn in button and I will not get the assignment once it is complete. Always, always hit the Turn in Button before answering questions.

6.  Once the assignment is complete please click the Turn in Assignment button.

Remember you can always use the help function in Edmodo. Click your child’s avatar picture and it will give you a list that has the profile, help, etc. in it. If you have questions, please email Mr. Thomas at thomasmv@gm.sbac.edu.

Edmodo Assignment Due

There is an Edmodo assignment due on October 23, 2015. Students will have approximately 2 weeks to complete the assignment. If you do not have a computer or internet access at home, please see or email Mr. Thomas to make arrangements.


In addition, your child should have a form that gives you information to join Remind.com. It was passed out several weeks ago.I will include a link on this page for it. It will text you whenever we have assignments due. Text the code and you will start receiving updates for assignments.

Also, if you go through Edmodo, your child can you the parent code so you may receive updates that way as well. The easiest way would be to log into your child account, click profile, then click parent code. You may want to add your email address to their profile so you get the notifications as well.

Please share this information with other parents either in person or via social media by clicking one of the icons below. Thank you!

Edmodo

Students in 3rd-5th grade are getting signed up for Edmodo.com. It is an online program similar to Facebook but it is meant for school work. The first assignment will be available by the end of this week once most of the classes have had the opportunity to go to the computer lab with me. Most assignments should only take about 10 minutes to complete. If you have questions, please email Mr. Thomas at thomasmv@gm.sbac.edu or stop by before school or after school.

Please share this information with parents via social media by clicking the buttons at the bottom of this post, via email, or in person. Thank you!
