Today’s the day!  Your students are going to start Core5 - WHOO HOO!

First, let’s be sure the logistics are taken care of - check out:

• Teacher Preparation: Core5  
• Technology Preparation: Core5

Next up - let’s go!

Step 1:

• Double check: Are your students ready to log in?
• Devices, headphones, and login information ✔️ ✔️ ✔️

Step 2:

• Introduce your students to Core5! We love a whole-group modeling session for this.
  • Resources to share:
    • Core5 Buttons and Computer Readiness Guide 
    • Core5 Best Practices Video 

Step 3:

• Students are ready to login for the first time: depends on your district setup, either direct login or portal (Clever or Classlink, for example)
  • We know, this part can be the most painful, especially if you’re working with our K-2 friends!
  • You can print class rosters and login cards to make this easier!

Step 4:

• Next up, Auto Placement!

• Students will start start Auto Placement activities the first time they log in to Core5.

  •  For more information on Auto Placement, see Core5 Auto Placement FAQ.

Step 5:

• You finished your first Core5 session! Make sure that students know how to log out.

• When it's time to stop working, show your students how to log out of Core5.
