(Remember to return graded work to your students so that it doesn’t live in your Google Drive for the rest of your life!) And teachers, did you know that you also have a to-do list? It helps you know what you need to grade and return to your students. I guarantee that you will be helping at least one of your students get a better handle on how to manage their workload. So, my fabulous teacher friends, let your students know about this amazing feature in Google Classroom. Students can also click on the “Done” tab and see all assignments that have been turned in along with any digital grades that have been given. To access the assignment, simply click on the title of the assignment and it will take the student right to the directions and attachments for said assignment. As you can see, my student has some serious work to do.Įach class has a sidebar color that matches the heading color of the classroom the work came from, but you can also see which class the assignment is from if you look under the title of the assignment. If there is no due date attached, the assignment will be at the bottom of the list. Once you click on that To-do heading, all activities that have been assigned will appear in order of due date. If you are looking at your Google Classroom homepage, click on the three lines to reveal the link for the To-Do List. There is a feature in Google Classroom that few people seem to be aware of, but can be an amazing lifesaver for students (and teachers)! It is the To-Do List. If the student has more than one teacher or is in more than one Google Classroom, figuring out what work needs to be completed can be time-consuming as students navigate to each of their classes and view the stream or classwork page for assignments.

If the student has one teacher and is in one Google Classroom, figuring out what needs to be done does not require much more than a quick check-in on the stream or classwork page. Students have suddenly had to adapt to a new digital learning environment and it can be overwhelming even for the most organized student.
