Record your video with anything-- the Screencastify add on, your phone, or your iPad
Once you get your video done, it is easy to upload it onto your YouTube account-- it is already associated with your google account. There are just a few options to choose when you upload.
you can make it unlisted so only people who have the link to the video can view it ( not just for your comfort-- see copyright notes below)
you can turn off the comments and the thumbs up/down review feature
Watch this video before you upload to see where the settings menus will be as you upload.
Reminder--- be respectful of copyright restrictions before creatingYouTube videos.

(1) using commercial music will get your video filtered. Don't play music in the background
(2) Many companies have loosed their copyright for a few months, but ask that your video is UNLISTED, not public. For example, Project Wisdom and Harper Collins publishers. (yay for Pete the Cat!) Record their content, but don't make the video public. It is just for your use with your students.

Assigning a nickname allows students to enter the Meet only when you are there. And BONUS! you can use the same nickname all the time.
Not a great idea---A calendar link! It remains open and students can access before or after when you aren't there.

About Google Hangouts Meet...
About Google Hangouts Meet...
When students’ routines are disrupted, many realize how much they actually miss the structure of school, and learning with their teacher. It’s important to maintain that feeling of comfort and safety during a time of uncertainty.
If your students have Wi-Fi access, you can see them virtually on Hangouts Meet. You can also use this platform to create video discussion sections for students to engage with one another and support their peers who might be struggling with concepts. Turn on live captions to help students focus, and so that students who are deaf or hard of hearing can read spoken language during the call.
Scheduling is another challenge that may arise. Using Calendar Appointment Slots, students who need extra help can sign up to meet 1:1 or in small groups with you. Due to intermittent or lack of Wi-Fi access, or shifting childcare solutions, not all students may be able to join a virtual classroom at the same time. Your instruction will likely be a mixture of live video and sharing recordings of your lessons for students who couldn’t make it. Thankfully, advanced features in Hangouts Meet allow you to record your lessons to share with students.
