You can assign an Easel Activity to students through Google Classroom or through a shareable link.
To assign through Google Classroom:
- Click “Easel by TPT” at the top of the TPT homepage, then select “Go to Easel.”
- From the My Activities page, click on the name of the activity to assign to students.
- Click the “Assign to Students” button, or the “+New Assignment” button if you’ve assigned the same activity before.
- Click on the Google Classroom icon below “Share on Google Classroom.”
- Sign in to the Google Account associated with your Google Classroom.
- Name the assignment and post it to any of your Google Classroom classes. Students will follow the link in their Google Classroom to the Easel Activity.
To assign through a shareable link, or if you use any other LMS (e.g. Canvas, Schoology):
- Click “Easel by TPT” at the top of the TPT homepage, then select “Go to Easel.”
- From the My Activities page, click on the name of the activity to assign to students.
- Click the “Assign to Students” button, or the “+New Assignment” button if you’ve assigned the same activity before.
- Click “Copy Link” to copy the shareable link to your clipboard.
- If it’s your first time sharing an Easel link, click “Generate Link” to first verify your email address before you can get a shareable link.
- Paste the link into an assignment within your LMS or other means of communication with your students. Before accessing their activity, students will need to verify their school or district email address.
Note: If the “Skip student login” option is selected when creating the shareable link, students will not be required to create an Easel account to open and complete the activity. When the “Skip student login” option is selected, students must finish the activity in one session. For additional information about the “Skip student login” feature, please see this FAQ article.
