How students join an email or Google account class

Students will sign in to Seesaw using their email address or Google Account. We recommend Email/Google Sign In only if students can remember their email address and password independently (Grades 4 and higher).

How Students Connect to Your Class

If you created your class using the Google Classroom import option, students will simply sign in to their Google account to view your class.

If you are using the email/Google sign-in option and not importing directly from Google classroom, get the Join Code for your class from the teacher app by tapping the '+ Students' button on the bottom right. For security, the Join Code is valid for 7 days. If the time limit expires, you can always get another Join Code.

           

To join your class, students will:

Get the Join Code for your class from the teacher app by tapping the '+ Students' button on the bottom right. For security, the Join Code is valid for 7 days. If the time limit expires, you can always get another Join Code by tapping ‘+ Students’.

To join your class, students will:

  1. Open the Seesaw app ­­-- or --­­ Go to h​ttp://app.seesaw.me ​on Chrome, Firefox, or Edge browser.
  2. Tap 'I'm a Student'.
  3. Enter the class text code in the 'Text Code' box and tap 'Go'.
  4. Choose “Continue with Google” or create an account by entering name, email, password, and confirm the password.
  5. Tap 'Create Account'.

If students already have a Seesaw Account, then joining your class will be a bit different:

  1. Open the Seesaw app ­­-- or --­­ Go to h​ttp://app.seesaw.me ​on Chrome, or Firefox, or Edge browser.
  2. Tap 'I'm a Student'.
  3. Tap 'Sign in with Google' or enter the email and password for non-Google accounts.
  4. Tap 'Student Sign In'.
  5. Tap the profile icon (top left).
  6. Tap '+ Join Class'.
  7. Enter the class text code provided by the teacher.
  8. Tap 'Join Class'.

** Students only need to use the Join code to join your class once. After they enter the join code the first time, they will stay connected to your class and will only need to sign in with their email address/Google Account to access your class moving forward.
