 All right, we got record going and then of course Tammy Cheatham She's the one that is kind of our canvas Domain person and she's set up your accounts now a little bit about where you are with canvas because of a little bit of Confusion you are going to get your own domain where your your kids will come over and your grades will go back and forth But it's probably going to get set up second semester and so I'm guessing you probably won't want to change over to your own domain until Like in the summer type of a deal Right now you're on the ESU 8 domain. That's why we had to create your accounts You're getting there, but it was just a checkbox where they thought you already had your domain But you were using ours before so it's coming you'll get that Integration but probably won't have the integration till your classes next year So and anything you build in these courses this year can go into your own domain We just pull them across later on. So that's that's wonderful You guys have questions Chatham to me or Go off mute and talk about it. So The candy activity that is not happening we forgot the candy So you guys weren't going to get to do it anyway because you are remote But even the other room so you don't even have to feel bad. They forgot the candy So I'm going to kind of start with this since we're behind we're going to look at your profile How to add a course how to add your students and then we're really going to talk about in the pre-k? Third grade using a button based homepage because it's really simplified and it's easier for kids And I will tell you about as I quickly go through these next pages because they're Not mine I'm We're gonna get to the elementary part Almost there last machine thought everything in here I try to follow up with a Video resource that basically talks about the same thing that I'm going to show you So if you can't remember if you come back to the slideshow You can probably find a supporting video not mine But if somebody doing just what I'm going to talk about so I know this will be fast and furious and you're like Also know that any of us any three of us are happy to work one-on-one with someone If you just want a little bit more help or you say this is what I do I don't know how to put that in canvas. We will help you do that And Mindy you might help me did any of your teachers use seesaw before yes Okay, so I'm going to show you how you can pull your seesaw activities into Canvas also so if you plan to use canvas everybody uses that K-12 as a home base for remote learning I'll show you how you can go out to seesaw and actually do those activities and stuff in seesaw and have them brought into canvas So if there's that is something somebody wants we have that option to All right, so some of our learning goals and if I need to slow down you just have to holler or chat at me Um We're gonna make sure that logging in and creating a course. We're gonna look at some of the canvas features We're gonna clean up the sideboard bar for elementary kids. So that's very simplified and then We're gonna talk about making those home base buttons so that you can Function at a very simplified homepage, but with all the great activities that canvas allows you to do and I Just did a zoom presentation about not supposed to have a halo. I'm sitting right under the light and I got a halo. So Logging in and I've got a few pictures here I'm gonna go actually go out to canvas in just one second to show you This stuff and same with the settings and notifications here are resources that go through everything I'm gonna show you so if I go through it way too quickly But please if you have the ability to stop me By coming off mute or chatting. I'm happy to talk more about Any of these things I'm gonna show you and then we'll get into the home bar Home page and sidebar and all of those resources are also here So I'm gonna escape and I'm going to pull up my canvas Horse had this all open and had to shut my computer down When we were having trying to get logged on. So here we go So this is a little bit about and I've got a lot of courses in here You might not have any or you might have one or two and over here You mostly have the same thing I have except you probably don't have admin and you won't have groups until you build groups for Students so that will show up later But the first thing I would tell you to do is in the account one here You probably have the letters of your initials unless you put a picture in and under profile I would I would certainly say putting a picture here just by clicking the pencil Uploading a picture or you can just take one is really important because if we go remote Those kids want to see you they want to know they're connecting with their teacher So this is a huge thing we talk about trying to continue that relationship Building even after we've gone remote if we have to and this is just one little way and Also, when your picture is then there just like over here. They're just going to know that they're in the right spot Looks like I have a question. Let me check that Okay someone. Oh you haven't been able to log in Mindy. Okay, so Anyone else To log in Tammy created she should have sent you an email that said something about logging into that first course Did you get that email that it's kind of a dummy course. It's like teacher permissions course you Got to this issue eight dot and structure comm the login is your email and the password is let me pull up a Word document to type that in quickly So let's go bigger here So the password is all the same the first time and then you can change it but it should be So try that can't whoops can yep canvas pass the a's or the at sign The pass is This regular that should be everybody's password the first time Change your picture. I would put your picture in I think I think that's important If you go here and you go to settings You can also get to settings a couple other ways, but we want to look at your settings because if Based on the way they put this in here if your display name Says like Molly Asha. I probably don't want that displaying the students So this is where you would come and change your display name By over here. There's an edit button. I can't see that too many things open So let me make this a little bit smaller. Are you guessing you're still seeing my screen Settings I can't see my screen. I hope you can There it is right down here I Had to move everything over so it says edit settings I click that Then I can come over here and change my display name And so that's important too because you probably want to go by what your kids are calling you And then I just update my settings one thing about it you have to save it doesn't save automatically like Google and we're used to So the other thing over here under your account is Notifications now I'm going to talk about them what you end up doing You'll probably change a couple different times trying to figure out what works best for you So if this has the check mark they notify me right away when a due date is set Or that can send me a daily summary send a weekly summary or Don't send it to me at all So if it's a course and you're in there all the time you maybe don't want any of this sent to your email Otherwise you're gonna be bombarded with emails or maybe I just want at the end of the day. I want a summary of any Activity Submission activity something like that. So you kind of have to decide how you want that and Then you just move these and click these however you want them So that's under the notifications Maybe you want to be notified constantly. Maybe you're not in it all the time. Whatever. It's it's totally a prep personal preference All right, so that was a count pictures a big thing your display name and then the notifications When you want to be notified so over here I'm gonna go to my dashboard again You might have things there and you might not if you do not have anything here over here on the side or Just depends on how big your screen is displayed Whatever is over here if you don't see it it also or it will end up on the bottom of your page It just automatically moves it down there So if you have things really large here, then it moves it to the bottom, but you would need to start a new course and Once you've started a new course, that's when you can add students to it When you get the integrated system your students would already be there because it would come over from your student assistant or your SIS But we don't have that so we'll start a new course and I'm going to call this Boyd county Elementary And I just leave all this private. That's what you want. Your kids are going to be able to access it I create that course Alright, so here we are and this is a completely empty course And you're like well, this looks very adult-ish and it does but I'll show you some that that don't look that way and One thing I want to show you though over here. I have all of these things over here and For students in your grade levels I would probably want it So the only thing they see is probably the home button Because I'm going to make it so everything that they need is on that home button. It might go out to other places But all they need is the home button So what you do to figure that out is I'm going to come down here to settings Now we'll probably build in modules. We're going to maybe build quizzes all that stuff You can still use it and as a teacher you're going to see it but the eyeball is going to be like Crossed out that just means the students won't see it And I don't know that k3 you're going to be doing grades through here and things so Maybe they'll see it, but I would guess at this point not so What was that? You need me to slow down Did someone need something I heard Something but I didn't catch it Yeah, we need you to slow down for just a second so break and get logged in. We're still trying to get that done Oh, okay. Are you getting logged in? I'm not sure that I've made any adjustments for that so They're resetting passwords and some of them are getting in so okay wonder I'll wait you tell me when to go And know that this is recorded and I will Scrub out the parts where I wait and stuff so you don't have to sit through all of that before I send it on to Mrs. Johnson to send out but You'll be able to find that stuff Thank you. Yep, Cindy while we're waiting for those I might just ask So Is kindergarten going to to use it do you need to get those students in or are you just thinking first through third? Right now the plan is third through twelfth um preschool kindergarten, um First grade I know they were using seesaw quite a bit So I was just curious how we could implement that in And the reason I included second grade is primarily because barb johns teaches first and second And I didn't want her to have to learn two different platforms So right now the decision for sure is third through twelfth and we're just looking at How feasible it is for okay, so who is on the call? Is it just third grade teachers? Right now for you. It's preschool through fourth grade. Okay. Okay, so they can see how it works. Yes And I also I also thought some of us are parents too And it'll be interesting to see because I know the SU And schools in your district all said it would that was one of the frustrations for parents Yes, spring is that um as good as all the different platforms where it was hard for parents to join on to All of them, right All right, well you guys need to just let me know when you're ready for me to continue Quick question molly. Is it best for them to log on to continue or is that something they can do They might just want to stop and watch Because it's recorded they can go back and do their thing slowly as they're building their courses if they want Because I know they're anxious to log on but if it doesn't affect the training Yeah, no, I'm not gonna I mean at the end. I was going to give them time to work and maybe we can work on getting logged on then That would be good. I think All right, so I will be okay with that. I will continue, but I will go slower maybe Thank you. You bet Okay, once again, I am in a course. I started that course my boyd county elementary And I am going to I just came down here to settings So a few things in here. I can upload an image um, so on that dashboard page Go back to here Some of my courses have images and some of them just have colors So you can decide If you want an image I'm gonna go back into this course that I was at the boyd county one And I came down to settings So if I want to put some side of an image there I can If you have course codes and stuff those will line up with your student information system when you get that Done. So I don't mess with any of this really Unless I'm guessing you're not probably preparing anything that's like just second semester only that's more of a high school thing So you can put those dates in there But I wouldn't worry about any of this stuff in settings at the moment But what I would come over here to is navigation So what navigation does is that's all these buttons over here I was telling you about and I would just literally Drag these buttons that um are up here Below this line And then that means the students won't see them you can still use them You can still do an announcement all of those things you're going to do assignments You're going to do discussions. We might be taking grades We might be putting them in groups. I don't know if we will In third grade We'll still probably have files We're going to build pages But they just won't see it. They're just going to have a home button is the only thing they're going to see there And it's going to make their life so much easier So I literally just Drag all these below You can they can still use google drive if they did. I don't know if third graders did But it's just the home button above there and then I'm going to save that Remember save got to still save in canvas now all of these are like the eyes crossed out That just means the student can't see them You still can and I'll show you student view in a little bit, but so that's the wonderful thing Now I am going to Since I was in settings. I'm going to come back up here to Um show you a couple of other examples The calendar if you assign a date it automatically goes to the calendar the inbox That's only email within canvas, but you're probably not going to use that with young kids anyway The commons is a place that you might go to find Stuff that's already been created And then you can use it and I'll show you that a little bit But I'm going to take you actually into another course to show you what a button-based home page looks like for young kids All right, so I have one I keep working in I think it's this one Yeah, okay, so um This is one that I created from a template and I'll show you how to get those And this one maybe is how I want to organize it and each day I have their activities Behind it and so they would just come in and they would click this This is set up so that if you were going to go remote and do some zoom They would just have to come here and click on the icon and then behind that icon I have put my zoom link and they can go to my zoom Um, maybe if there's the library button. I mean this is just I just took this as an example um, so if I would click on monday It's going to take me to another page. Okay, and so that's what a button-based um Button-based home page does so that's one example Go back here. I have another one So this one's a little bit for older kids. Um But It's all button-based So this would be like the home page And if I click on any of them, um, well, I'll click here to get started that says But then if I click on announcements It takes me to another page where there's an announcement If I go back And I click on discussion ideas It takes me to this page with full of more buttons But each button takes me to an example So basically that's what we're going to create a button-based home page So now I'm going to show you how to do that And I want to whoops Come here for just a second So this here resource on creating the home page or a button-based home page One of the things I'm going to talk about is this the button factory And it's linked right here to get to it. It's pre-made buttons um And then this button for canvas slide shows you how to make Different shaped Buttons the button factories. They're all kind of rectangular Um, or you can make buttons in a power point. So there's different ways that you can do that It's all linked right here. So you can see how to do that I'm going to go back here to My course for um, whoops my dashboard My boyd county course and I want to say one more thing up here These courses that are above are published These that are unpublished sit below So if there was a student coming in they would not be able to see my boyd county one yet because I haven't published it So just so you know how it's organized on their end too if they're not seeing your course As a student there's a good possibility. You haven't pushed the publish button. There's different places you can do that, but All right, so here I am and I am going to go To a page And here is my Page and because I'm sharing everything I got to close some things out so I can see my whole page. Okay So I want to create a new page And I'm going to turn this into my home page eventually A couple different things I can do In here. I'm going to call this Boyd county third grade so I'm going to pretend I'm the third grade teacher And so that's what my page is going to be called and Then this little thing here is called the rich text editor And every time that you or a student Goes to type in here, whether it's an assignment an announcement discussion anything You get these same set of tools A couple things about it. This is pretty Normal. We've got our different types of text centering all that You can do math on it. They've got some nice Ways to do that But there's a couple that are really really nice and that is this one right here this record and upload media So every place that you want kids to Answer you or submit something they have this option And I'm going to show you what it's like Um, the first time you might have to allow your microphone or your webcam But basically they can give you their answer And either just an auditory answer or a recording or a webcam recording And for these young kids you can do that for all of the assignments that you give So if I type out some directions I can then also do a recording of those directions Wonderful wonderful feature and I'll use it here in a little bit But um, okay, so this is going to be third grade and I could go out and get some really cool stuff But I'm just going to create in here for the most part I'm going to Make 24 fold. Um, it's going to say welcome to Asha grade So I can Do my font and see You remember where font is Color Text color there No Well, that's not very exciting Hopefully I can't find there we go um Really there is fonts in here, you know, you know for the life of me why I can't Find the cool fonts or even where they're at I can change my font. I can make it larger smaller um center it All those kind of things Just like you would Any other font and I could change the color We'll definitely do that To make it cool All right, so there's my welcome I could do bring in pictures if I want to import an image right here like I would in google or anything else I can have that image on my Desktop or I can get a url for it if I'm getting it off the web Everyone's got a Chat here really quick Okay, everybody's good to go um But I'm just going to go to the button part because that's what's important So the easiest way to make sure your buttons are spaced equally is to do a table So I am going to do three rows by two and Now I'm going to put a button in here That is going to say um, I could do monday tuesday wednesday again But I'm just going to do maybe a social science button So back over here. I had that cool place called the button factory and I'm going to go there And I'm going to build a button All right, so this is what oops. I don't need a guide I come over here And I put in here. This is going to say science All caps And I can change my font bottle And I can make it bigger See it's it's building it right here. Maybe I wanted Oh caviar sounds good. Oh, that's kind of a cool button And it's bold So there it is my button size, um, I can Kind of do shading all that kind of stuff the background I'm going to leave science green. I decided I'm sure I want a bubble effect on it and a border And I want that border white Because I Don't know why but I do that didn't really show up. So maybe I better keep it black Shadow it Make the border a little bit bigger. There we go. That looks really good. Okay, so there's my button And now I'm just I'm going to I can download it. I can embed it. I can do However, I want to do in that it's a png So let's chart with The link to it. So I just copied my link here I'm gonna come back over here and I am going to do a Image from a url That was where I got that link And I'm going to put that in there. So they have this saying or this one lady says um Came to be really cool saying it's about that. You saw it turned yellow that means it's it's linked in there. It's there So I want to center this. I should have centered all of them before so they're science Okay, now we're going to quick change this to say math Okay, and it's basically the same button, but it says math once again I get that url come back over here We're going to Center this before I paste it in this time Oh, I did that wrong. I got to come up here And do the embed the image url there There's math. Yep. Okay. So I can do science. I can do math. I can do whatever I want Now the button is built, but I have to link it to something for the kids So I'm going to come over here and highlight my button and I am going to link it to Probably another page and that's going to be my science page Um, I don't have one built so I'm going to link it to a new page. I'm going to call it science And then I'm going to put Science assignments and so forth behind it. We'll do that same with math quick The new page and I'm going to call it Yeah All right, so done with that So they've both been linked All right, so I'm going to save this I can save and publish now or Let me show you here It's not published. All I would have to do is click publish It's green kids can see it if it's Unpublished they can't Um, and the nice thing is you could publish this page But then I could unpublish the science page if I'm still building that Or within the science page I can unpublish the module Because I've only got one ready for kids and only want them to see one and then unpublish the rest until I'm ready for it So that's the really cool thing about that So here's my page And I don't need to edit it, but I'm going to say use it as the front page Because I have other pages if we come back over here to view all the pages Oops coming Um Where's my view all pages I lost it, but anyway So I want to come over there it is Oh, oh, I don't have them published. That's why we don't see the other ones. They're mine But anyway, I want this use this as my front page So I've marked that but there's two steps to actually make it the home button Then I have to come over here to home And choose a home page And I choose this front page here that says boyd county third grade and then I save that So then my home page is always going to be this Miss Ashoff's home page now. What does this look like for a student? Well right now. Remember we see all of this as a teacher Um, but if I look at student view at any time I can do that See they only have a home And let's say they went into science There's nothing on that page But if they would go in there science page doesn't exist because I didn't publish it Um, and they got lost they would just have to click home and they would always come back to this page So simplified is what we want. So let's get out of student view And go back to our course You can't see my Gonna move this up. There we go leave student view All right, so let's build that science page that we were talking about when this goes to that new page called science so Okay, there's that page called science that we had started And I can do different things in it and once I get there. I might List different assignments do whatever I want behind it But this is a page. So I'm just going to put this is This is where you Find your Science work. Wow. Okay So I'm going to save that And we're going to publish it So it we can see it Now if I come up to view all pages, we now have the boyd county and the science page So let's on that science page Show how we can do different things on it. So let's go back here And it looks like this but I want to start adding some things to that page so I can add An assignment Or what you probably want to do is build everything in modules And I'm going to show you why it's just simplest To build it in a module And if we come back out here And I show you my modules part of the presentation If you're not Sure, if you should use an assignment a discussion Whatever you can come here and go through this flow chart. So this is just A quick thing. Maybe you want to quiz but I want to show you what modules look like So you see how this module here is Is organized that's what a module does for you It allows you to provide some organization and the kids might not see that but me as a teacher I like the organization that a module provides and Here's an example of a module that's just Put out there and here is one that has text headers and is organ Organized and so depending on what kind of teacher teacher you are I'm very linear. I really like this and if I was a student seeing it I would like it the way we're setting this up the student's not going to see the modules And I don't I don't know if your elementary has iPads that thumbs up Mindy what it Some of different. Okay. So this is just an idea showing how it looks on an iPad So it does also flow that organization on an iPad All right, so we're going to go back to course. We're in a module And I am going to build a new one More no than yes. Okay. So what did they use? Chromebooks. Okay. Perfect. Thank you. It's web based. That's all right. So Um, it works Just like it's working on my computer on a chromebook. It's web based There is an app for an iPad. So it looks a tad bit different Um, if you're using the app But for the most part the same All right, so this is my module and I'm going to call it science I'm going to add the module and then Once I'm in science I can do different things Um, and I might have my other module Was What did we put math? So I've got two modules there And let's start building in this module. So Here I am and I come over here to the plus sign I'm going to add something put something in my module We have all of these things that we can do but we're going to start with that text header And this one's all on plants And it's my text header. So I'm not going to indent it. So I'm going to add it All right, and then I want to add another one And this is going to be We're going to do a discussion Oh, sorry. No, I want to do this discussion here And the new topic is, um, plant food All right, we're going to add that item Um, oops, I forgot I wanted to indent it so it looks better. Well, look right over here I can do an indent really quick So I'm starting to get some organization And I'm going to do one more thing under here Let's do a An assignment And I'm going to call it I don't know, um, identify Oops Plant identification. There you go. And I want to indent So here's the way my module is looking. It's looking pretty good And let's go back and Since this plant food was just a name We need to build what this discussion is going to look like So I'm going to edit it Here's that rich context editor. Um, so I can do the same thing. I could put a picture in here um of different foods and they need to, um Tell me or maybe they need to Um discuss which of them would be plant foods. So I could put water I could put fertilizer a picture. I could put a picture of um, um, I don't know Candy so they're not going to probably pick that one But how I would do that. So I'm just going to put a picture in so you have experience doing that From a url from canvas from flicker Um, I can upload it from my own computer Um And let's let's go find one first All right, so water And I'm going to do an image And um, oh, I don't know why I mean, yeah who I need to be in google so I can Here we go images And then I would go here to my tools And usage rights and I would want one for use for reuse And maybe It's looking kind of maybe should have typed rain But I'll just use this one So a couple things I can do I can copy it By just doing a copy image I could also get the image link copy the link address Um, whichever works. Oops. I missed that Copy image I can take it back over here and I can just paste my image in Yeah, it's not pasting Or Go back here and catch that link So there's my link Copy that Come back stick that in there update That's not I didn't work either. Sorry Let's do it this way. Let's Take this image Just gonna put it on my desktop And then I'm going to come here And I am going to go to images And upload the image On my desktop Right there And it's a decorative image that looks good There it is so A little more step than I guess it won't just let me copy and paste I thought I could And then let's do one more quick. Let's get candy This candy is not food for plants I'm still in labeled for reuse So I'm gonna put that right there on my desktop Come back Upload Choose my file Some candy All right, so I've got two pictures and then I'm going to write my directions that would say In the discussion box tell which pictures Are food for plants and why Okay, now I talked about um You can also add that Audio or visual of the directions So right here. I am going to do this and say I want to do the mic only Or just actually I'm gonna start recording here Your directions are to look at the pictures And then in the discussion box Tell which pictures are pictures of food for plants and why they are good plant food All right, so there it is I can save it And so right there Are the directions so on the students part they can click that button and listen to the directions Um, if there's anything else I want to add I can do that So here's a couple options allow threaded replies kids can talk about other kids's responses and I probably wouldn't check this for young kids that they have to post before seeing other people's answers I would just save it and publish it All right, so this is what it looks like And this is where they would put their reply and we can look at that as students in you know a little bit and I published it So I'm gonna go back to my module And that one's green. It's published. It's ready to go Um, I want to show you this plant identification. It could be an assignment. You just build it the same way But let's say I want to add a quiz because I want to show you these quizzes So we're going to look at the quizzes Um, there's two kinds always choose new quizzes because as of the end of august I think classic quizzes goes away. They used to give you the option, but we're just going to choose Always a new quiz for this course I'm going to call it Plant parts amazing. Here we go And tell me how many points maybe it's going to be I think there's only five questions So I'm going to say five points Um, oops, I'm gonna call it a quiz. Here we go points, um It's for everybody all that kind of stuff so we can save and publish And then it's going to allow us to build our quiz So you can add your everything you build you can add to your item bank and so your item bank grows Um, but what those look like is you can do Um, categorization questions. You can do a file upload. There's formulas for math. There's matching We know what multiple choice ordering is but I want to talk about this hot spot because I think for younger kids This is a great type of quiz question hot spot So I'm going to say, um Actually, this is just plant plant part And then a question stem I would put Actually, let's do click on the plant part that Um gives plants nutrients All right, and that could add more Um, think about photosynthesis if that's a word they use in third grade But I want to um, actually I think I put I drug this to my trash. So I gotta drag my picture out of my trash first I had one on here from the other day if I can find it Fast No, I can't find it fast. Sorry. We'll go here and go plant parts. All right, and I'm going to we'll just take this one Okay, and well This one this will be better Okay, so I'm going to drag this one again to my desktop And Then I am going to drag it. I could have just drove it here, but I couldn't see all that with my stuff on Okay, so there it is and um Then I need to put the hot spot So the part that they get nutrients from it could be many parts the leaves they get So that probably wasn't a very good question. I would have to be more specific But I'm going to drag my hot spot over that part. So I'm going to that's where I want my answer to be Now I would also item. I would bank this item um, okay Oh add the item. It's just one point. Yep. Never mind. It's done and I'm going Oh, I do have to have us down. Um, so What part Does it drink from Now we're done Okay, so there it is and it allows me to preview it So you're going to see what the kids see So what part does it drink from plant parts? I as a kid just have to click So I'm going to click here It's my hot button. It's within my square and I submit it And it tells me I got one right if that is the part the correct answer there. So Great way for young kids to do a quiz All right, so I'm done with the quiz And I want to go back To my course Here we go. All right, so one thing I'm going to show you science was clicked to this page But let's add This page and link it to my module of science Okay, so that's nice. Actually, I should probably have that underneath there There we go. Now we'll link it to science All right, so let's say you want to link it out to something you already have so you can We'll do the math one here since we don't have it linked to anything So I'm going to come back to my home page and that math button Oops, I gotta get ready you guys so I can see over here I can Link it out to a specific spot. All right. I think I already linked the math button to the page called math Um I didn't create that page, huh? So let's do a new page. I thought I did this math Inserted the link. Oh, if you see the blink you've created the link. That's what that lady already said You saw that blink yellow. So, you know, you've created a link But we need to um add to that page or To that spot so we know where we're headed and maybe it's out to your reading curriculum or something so I'm gonna come back over here to to oops save this Save Okay, I'm gonna view all my pages and I should have a math page I don't know unless I'm doing something right. So we'll go math here. We'll create it And then I can put this link. So um, let's say My math curriculum is called eissue 8 and that's where I take them so And I am just going to create that link to our website if you're going to a website um, so if it's a website Like this, I would just copy that link That's a lot and then come here Do a hyperlink do this link put it in Insert the link. I saw the blink. So it's linked So then they would go to that web page So maybe use ixl or something like that that they go and do them there So that's one way But maybe I have a whole um, I'm not sure how you're reading stuff works, but um, I can go and I've got Maybe is there pdf's that they use? um, like wonders, there's a, um, do you use wonders the um Slide shows or We don't have the same slides as the eissue has been working with in 2017, but there are Slides and pdf snapshots available. Okay, so what else might you like? What else curriculum? You'd link to slides link to a pd stories Okay, and how are the stories are they on youtube? Are they printed? Don't know that I'm going to ask if so let's say there's um An anthology that's available online and the story they need is let's say page 86 through 89 is there a way to link to just specifically those pages of the pdf Okay, so this is this is my work around to that. I don't know if it's the correct one or not So we'll we'll we'll do my way. So I'm going to pull it Okay, so um There's a howl newsletter I'm just going to pull that up and pretend that's the pdf that I want in and there's seven pages and I only want pages two and three Um, so this is this is how I would do it. It's probably not the right way Um, I can edit that pdf and just save pages two or three or when I go to print I say Print pages Two and three But I don't actually print I make them another pdf and that's probably not the right way and I'm Not even seeing it. It's gonna allow me to back up and pick a different printer Wow print to pdf it's usually in there. Yeah It's not there. Oh, maybe it's in advanced that makes sense to me I don't know. We do know that process. We have that available here And you and you just print but instead of printing I don't print I make the pdf and I don't Don't know why it's not showing me that so Um, I'll say what if I went to print do I get the option next? Nope Um, or I would just save this as pages one and two. There we go. Here we go. This is maybe what I need to do pages Two Do you know what I'm talking about? It's not showing it. I don't know why Mindy's saying yes I know I've seen that there I don't know why anyway So I would only print and then I would save it to the pdf instead of printing it And then so I've got my pdf of two pages But in this case, we'll just use all seven since I can't seem to make it down to two So I have this pdf here and um, I'm I think it's saved on My desktop. Let me see. If not, I'm going to save it there Uh, it wasn't so now it's on my desktop. So I know where it's at Okay, so and I want to link that in so I'm back now. I'm going to go to my canvas course I gotta shrink you guys so I can see it all And I'm going to upload that pdf into my files. So I go to files and I'm going to upload a new file And I'm going to choose that pdf from right there it is And it's all seven pages because But you would say whatever you'd want um and Yep, it talks about the howl newsletter and it's going into my course files I could maybe just do reading files or name it whatever I want, but Okay so then if I go here and I want to Put in that newsletter. I just come over here and I clicked on it and there it is the pdf of it I could also depending on I'm on a page here if I was in an assignment. I'm going to save this So it's going to be there and we'll show you what that is like for kids in just a second But let's go. I was talking about modules We're building in modules and this is that assignment that I never did So I'm going to edit that And here's my plan identification, maybe I give my directions Um here I can upload that file right in there. So I go over here to files There's my newsletter. I can put that file in an assignment also Um in a discussion I can it asks me to upload the file also So it's the same place. So once I get it over into my files Those pdfs I can use now one of them we were talking about A uh something in google So that's nice because we have google capabilities And I can let's save this get out of this So there's that how newest letter right there's a pdf the kids would see it But let's say I want to do something else Let's go back over to Not rubrics modules Um, and let's add a new one. I don't know. I'm just going to call it this I I don't want a new module. I want a new assignment There we go. Um, or Maybe it's a a discussion And it's new I call it Reading indent it add it And then when I go into it To edit it A discussion is a little bit different. So, um, I write my stuff there, but um Here I can choose a file to add to it. So it's still the same thing Um, and I'm getting a file. Let's say Um, I pull it something from here. I could add it there Um, if I was wanting that's what I wanted to do. I wanted to pull like a If I have a power point on here, I could pull if I have any I cleaned up my desktop and I don't have anything on there Um, I could here's a an agenda for a meeting or maybe it's a screenshot. There's that newsletter I could upload it that way also if it was, um Like the slides from this How presentation This and I grabbed that url there I come back over here and I could say Slides And I could embed it there With just the link like this And that would be the slides they would click on it and it's going to take them out to this slideshow Um, I could also If you have something, um, you talk over your slides like you give them directions and you record that And it maybe it's in youtube. I can pull in a youtube video Just really simple like that um Let's just do um, I don't know a story Um, I'm gonna say reading ring so Here's a three hat day Story is but I've embedded it right there and when it comes from youtube it looks like this and I would just click on it And it would share that story So let's say yeah, that's what I want Let's save that And so there's that discussion And I wanted to make sure that was under modules Um Oh, it was it was reading right so now if I come back here and show the student view This time. I think we're working under nope Okay, let's edit that home page and make sure that this whole thing is Published that's not what I want all published Now everything should be published. I should be able to see it. Oh math's not published I didn't put it in math. I put it in reading I have a memory issue student view It's still under science My science work goes out to my module. Well I thought I fixed my link I was fixing it and then I went to fix Mindy's and I must not have fixed that so let's go here if we go to modules Science is linked to The science page math Let's just do this science. Let's link it to that science module Okay And math will link to the math one And I'll save okay I don't know why you're not Something's not linked right. I apologize. I will get that fixed but questions while I'm figuring out why I can't get to my modules No questions anyone All right, let's Look here one second up my slideshow And we talked about modules and resources oh content and activities. I want to talk to just a second so Back to that course I showed you with all the buttons like the discussion buttons and there was announcement buttons and there was quiz buttons It's an open course That you can register and go to and then you can use some of those same activities But if nothing else it shows you different activities and that's really nice Um, so that's what this is you click on here and you enroll with this cold code And then you could See those but here I want to show you If you go if you wanted to do something in seesaw But get to it through canvas um If you click right here A new assignment because I want to put the grade right here in canvas and I'm going to call this seesaw All right, just a quick thumbs up. Can you hear that? Okay, so she's going to show you how to Get a seesaw activity. Um, and I think third graders could do this I think you could show kinder and for second graders how to do this But this is um, how to do that Or that's if they submitted an assignment I would just make a button that says seesaw And then they would actually go into seesaw and do their stuff in seesaw, especially if they're used to doing that So they would start with canvas click the seesaw button and basically they're going to be working in seesaw, but She does show you how they could actually take their seesaw activity And basically put the url Into their canvas assignment And then it would be there now if you were grading and the grades went on into your student information system Then you would probably want to do this process, but that's not happening yet So I would think that you're okay without doing this But this lady here Um, oops. Ah How did I lose all my? Hang on I act like it's my first rodeo here using zoom. I just closed out my windows Let me get back to my All right, then I gotta come down here This lady that has this youtube channel. Um It's got a reload Canvas for littles is what she calls it But um, she has some fantastic videos And so one thing that I suggest doing Is Subscribing to her page and I have that here for you Too far too far too far Okay So back up here where we were talking about Um organizing modules and modules and canvas for elementary those are both Um youtube videos, but she As a channel right here, um Nope still not in the right spot Here it is canvas, um for elementary teachers and then this is a course Sorry, it's not my canvas for littles If we come back to that video Finally a new assignment because I want to I'm not going to make you watch the raid right here in canvas and I'm gonna call the But I would come down here and subscribe to this lady this lolly Because she as you can see over here. She's got a ton of them. They're short and it talks about specific things It talks about making buttons. She's the one where I learned about the button factory um, she talks about Making assignments for little kids and how to use that she's the one that's doing this connecting seesaw She is a great resource. So I would right here. I would subscribe. I think I'm on the I was on esu a youtube channel left last, but I'll subscribe anyway Um and follow her and she's got some great resources down here There is another one Back to my power point um another Resource there's canvas for littles canvas for elementary. It's a facebook group that you can join. Um, it does She does a great job and then um Before I show you the commons and let you get to to work. This chara johnson is at esu two in Fremont she actually works for canvas and for esu2 and so she also teaches a canvas course for um their Career academy. So she has a lot of great ideas and experience and so she is not a great person to follow now if you're in canvas And you come here to the commons This is where other people have done things and they've shared them for the world to use um, I could search just like um Homepages And then i'm going to get examples of different home pages. Oh, here's a k through fifth This looks fun and colorful If I went to this There i'm getting there And I look at it And I think well, that's really nice. Oh, she's got a seesaw button Clever we're not going to use that and a zoom button That's almost I would just have to like take this clever out And then I think this would be a great homepage for me to have so um, I can Look at the the details if I want or I can just come over here and import it And what class am I in import it to import it to the boyd county one because I think it's prettier than the page I made So I import it Um, and then I'm going to go show you where that's at but before I do that and come back to commons here another one instead of just um Searching that I could search that lolly gal And Susie lolly is her name. And so she's got um different Lots of different stuff up here that I could use. She's got a whole course On teaching k through second grades canvas for littles Um that I might want to look at Or I could search Shara johnson right here And look at all the things she's put up for Templates and things that I could reuse so anything in the commons you can download and reuse so I did I downloaded that So if I come back over here to my course We go to that boyd county one If you remember it was a page So if I view all the pages There it was tk. I don't know what that stood for But there it is. Oh transitional kindergarten And say okay. Well, I'm going to edit that and I'm going to have it say Welcome to Oh, she brought this full in as a picture um, so I can't take transitional kindergarten off um, because she made that as an image and brought it in And um, but I could change that image And I still got buttons here They're not live But I could make this a seesaw button link out to my seesaw page Or put the link in same with zoom. So I created all and then I save it But let's say I wanted to redo this picture In our slideshow Anna Has how to do that. So if you come back up here She has that right right here She made this boyd county one and she will show you if you click on these links how to make this and save it and put it in To your course I could also create something like in a power port slide Take a picture of that slide and import it into my course So you have so many options on how to make it pretty But then you need to make it useful also that has been a Lot a lot of information. I'll leave you once again with this page I will tell you that canvas con is the Like the national canvas conference. I don't remember where it was supposed to be maybe pittsburgh But it has gone virtual and it's free So you could register here To go and then on october 15th. You can attend any of those canvas sessions that you would like So i'm going to stop sharing I've been sharing I've been talking And then do you have questions I will clean up that recording and send that to cindy Mindy, did you ever question two things number one? I got into my account. Oh Did tammy did tammy help you or something? Um, all of a sudden while you were talking I got an email that said I could It must have been something I did I don't know if it was something you did molly. Thank you I So secondly is the main idea that we would eventually have a link on our home page That kids would be able to get on our home page and then click and go to Their canvas account or their and log into their canvas account and have all their Things is that the big idea here? I mean, I mean think it sure could like your home page of your website Like yeah, like the school website I would think so and that home page just takes them to a login and then they would log in Yeah, and you could do that now if you wanted I don't whoever's in charge of your home page just make a canvas link on it That takes you to the login page and then for their kids would log in Um, so young kids if they don't know their login Um And and I assumed that they were assigned an email. I don't how low you use emails Uh, great. Typically just because there's some right relations there, but I've been told if we use a boy county.org we might be able to go lower So what I would do is they I mean obviously we put in that the um email was created for them And um, that's what their login is And so once they get logged in um, you can You know they You can turn off the email capabilities. They just use it as a login. That's what I'm trying to say So in google you can do that you've they've been assigned an email that they'll use forever but you turn off the email capabilities and it's just used as a login for them And that's how they would have to log in how that was created that way You could also if for younger kids you could take that login Get them logged in and then make like a qr code from that once they're logged in and then they would just Scan their qr code if they're using an ipad, but if they're using a chromebook They're going to have to log in that email will be their login and they create a new password The only thing is that email is turned off for email and robert would do that on the back side of the google domain so for these Grades they would turn off email capabilities, but it's still there to use for login So that's what I would suggest for those, but someone just chatted that maybe it's already on your home page um, the canvas link is on the top bar of our website They said so And yes, there was a link to the slides. I will put that Into the chat box for you And once again, you'll have a recording i'm going to stop that so it can process
