Google Classroom Summary Information
At St Andrews College we use Google Classroom to help facilitate student learning. You will have noticed your child using it over the last few weeks during remote learning. Parents have the ability to receive weekly summaries of their child’s learning through Guardian Summaries.
If you have not previously accepted an invitation to receive Guardian Summaries from Google Classroom you will be receiving an invitation via the email address we have in Compass.
Guardian Summaries
As a parent or guardian you can get email summaries about your child’s activity in Google Classroom.
In the email summaries you will see:
- Missing work - This is work that was not turned in when the summary was sent.
- Upcoming work - Work that is due today and tomorrow (for daily emails) or work that is due in the upcoming week (for weekly emails)
- Class activities - announcements, assignments and questions that were recently posted by teachers.
Things to note:
You can get email summaries sent to any email address but if you wish to view or update the email summary settings, you need a Google Account. If you are using a google account you will be able to change the frequency of your emails, see the students connected to your account and unsubscribe from email summaries.
How do you get an email summary?
To get an email summary of your child’s work, you need to accept the email invitation for every child. If you do not accept the invitation it will expire.
Once you accept the invitation you will be linked to ALL of your child’s Google Classrooms.
- You will receive an email that invites you to join your student’s class.
- Click Accept.
- Click Accept to confirm.
When you accept the invitation, you and your child will get an email confirmation.
If you have any questions or would like further information please feel free to contact me and I will be happy to assist.
