How do I invite families to my class by email?

  1. To invite family members by email, add family member email address next to each student’s name. You can invite up to 10 family members to connect to each student’s journal. Once you’ve added their email address, they will receive an email invite (in English) to connect to their child’s journal.

What do families see when they are invited?

Families with receive an email, SMS message, or QR code! When they receive an email it will appear directly in their personal inbox. Family members will need to choose to connect to their child’s journal.

Family members will be prompted to sign in or create a new account.
