READ & DO FIRST
Step 1: Have your student seated next to you with their Chromebook. Your student must be present for Step 4 to generate a “pairing code.”
Step 2: Use the link below to create a new parent/"observer” account and later to access your existing parent/”observer” account in Canvas. Please add this link to your favorites or bookmarks, so you are able to login to Canvas daily as an “observer” using your own account.

Step 3: To set up your account, fill in your:
Name (Please use your full name to help your child’s teacher identify you as an “observer”)
Password
Child’s Pairing Code (pause here and go to Step 4)
Step 4: To get your child’s pairing code:
Watch the video to the right to “pair” your account with your student’s.
Each parent can link to their child's Canvas with different emails. However, you/your child would have to generate a different code for each parent.
Add the pairing code to finish registering your account from Step 3.
Finally, agree to the terms of use by clicking the “You agree to the terms of use” checkbox and click “Start Participating.”
Beginning at 6:56, keep watching the video if you wish to add another student.
If you have any questions or need help pairing an account, please contact Deb Temperly, BMS Teacher-Librarian (563) 359-3686, ext. 5100.
