Google Classroom is how your teachers will set you work that they want you to complete. Watch this tutorial to see the basic layout and functions.
Work is set as 'Assignments' through Google Classroom. You should know where to find them, how to complete them and how to hand them in to your teacher.
In secondary school you will have 13 different subjects, which means you will belong to at least that number of google classrooms. Teachers will set assignments on different days of the week, with different deadlines for you to complete them by. Understanding how google classroom can help you to manage your workload and meet deadlines is really important.
At secondary school we encourage you to be independent learners and try to work things out for yourself. However, sometimes you may have to ask the teacher a question about a piece of work. You can do this through google classroom and they will respond to you within 48hrs.
