...DOWNLOAD THE GOOGLE CHROME BROWSER AT HOME?

If you don't use the Google Chrome browser at home to browse the internet, it is recommended that you download it for use. It will help when you are at home to do the same work using the same methods that you use at school. If your home computer is using Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox or some other browser, you can still use it while using Google Chrome. Google Chrome is free. Follow the instructions below depending on what kind of computer you have.

IF YOU HAVE WINDOWS

Install Chrome on Windows

Download the installation file.
If prompted, click Run or Save.
If you chose Save, double-click the download to start installing.
Start Chrome:
- Windows 7: A Chrome window opens once everything is done.
- Windows 8 & 8.1: A welcome dialog appears. Click Next to select your default browser.
- Windows 10: A Chrome window opens after everything is done. You can make Chrome your default browser.

IF YOU HAVE APPLE

Install Chrome on Mac

Download the installation file.
Open the file called "googlechrome.dmg."
In the window that opens, find Chrome .
Drag Chrome to the Applications folder.
- You might be asked to enter the admin password.
- If you don't know the admin password, drag Chrome to a place on your computer where you can make edits, like your desktop.
Open Chrome.
Open Finder.
In the sidebar, to the right of Google Chrome, click Eject.

Now that you have the Google Chrome browser at home, it's time to log in - just like school. You will need to log in to your worthschools.org Google account in order to be able to access your email, your Google classrooms, your Google Drive and whatever else you use your Google account with. In order to log in, you need to visit www.google.com. From there, you will need to click the Sign In button on the top right.

As the picture on the left shows, you will then be taken to a new page where you will need to enter your school email address and the password that you've been using at school.

Once you're logged in, you will be able to access your homework, your files, your emails, and your Classrooms by clicking the nine-dot box found on the top right of the web page as seen below.

...ADD GMAIL, GOOGLE CLASSROOM & OTHER GOOGLE APPS TO MY PHONE?

Most of the apps you use in class are available to you on your phone, too! If you'd like to check your student email while you're at home on your phone, you can do that. Same goes for your Google Classroom account.
