Are you ready to learn how to set up a class account on Khan Academy Kids? This guide will help teachers and parents create an account to make learning fun and easy for kids. With a class account, you can organize your class, create assignments, and keep track of how students are doing.
First, open the Khan Academy Kids app. You’ll see a screen with an option to sign up. Tap on “Sign Up” to begin creating your new account. Use your school email address to sign up. After that, check your email for a message from the Khan Academy Kids team. Click on the “Verify Email” button in the email to confirm your account.
Once your email is verified, go back to the app and tap “Next.” Instead of entering a child’s name, choose “Switch to Teacher Setup.” Here, you will type in your teacher name, create a password, and select the grade you teach. If you teach more than one grade, pick the grade that most of your students are in.
Now, it’s time to add your students. You can type each student’s name on a separate line, pressing enter after each one. If you have a list of student names on your device, you can copy and paste it into the app. You can also adjust their learning levels, and remember, you can change this later if needed.
Once your class is set up, students will see a screen when they sign into the app. They will select their name and avatar to start learning. As a teacher, you can manage your class by tapping your teacher avatar, which looks like a bear. This is where you can create assignments and monitor how your students are progressing.
And that’s it! You’re all set to make learning exciting and organized with Khan Academy Kids. Enjoy teaching and watching your students grow!
Create Your Own Classroom: Pretend you are a teacher and set up a classroom at home. Use toys or drawings to represent students. Give each “student” a name and decide what subjects they will learn. Discuss with a family member or friend how you would organize your classroom and what fun activities you would plan for your students.
Email Adventure: With the help of an adult, explore how emails work. Create a pretend email message on paper that you would send to your students if you were a teacher. What would you say to welcome them to your class? Draw a picture of what your email might look like, including a fun greeting and a picture of your classroom.
Learning Levels Game: Think about different subjects you learn at school, like math, reading, or science. Create a simple game where you match different activities or tasks to the right learning level. For example, match a picture of a book with “reading” or a number puzzle with “math.” Discuss with a friend or family member why it’s important to have different levels for different learners.
