If you are not using a Chromebook, we have found that using the Chrome web browser works best.  If you don't have Chrome, use Firefox.  Using Internet Explorer tends to lead to problems.


First, login to your Gmail.  Then go to classroom.google.com (you may have an icon or a bookmark for it somewhere).


Two helpful notes:

  1. Signing in to Chrome (and not Gmail) may not be sufficient.  You must sign in to your Google account (e.g., Gmail), and then navigate to Google Classroom.
  2. Do not start a homework assignment on a different Google account (e.g., your parents' account).  You will not be able to transfer any Google docs or other Google Drive files to your St. Albert Google account without manual copy-n-pasting, which can be error-prone.  Be sure that you are signed in to your St. Albert Google account before starting a homework assignment!

Please Note: If a student is logged into their school email, and they click the Google Apps (nine squares at the top right) and click "more" and Google Classroom does not appear, the student should click the Google Apps, click Gmail, and Classroom should appear.
