When you distribute your activity via Google Classroom, your students will now receive the assignment in their Google Classroom stream, and grades will transfer from TeacherMade to your Google Classroom gradebook automatically! Here are the instructions for using this time-saving integration.

Sign in to TeacherMade and click the Activity Title. That will take you to the Activity Detail screen. Click the "Create an Assignment" button if this is the first Assignment you've created for this activity or "Create New Assignment" if you've already created one or more.

OR

On the Create Assignment screen, you will name your assignment. Next, you will choose how to deliver the assignment. Check Google Classroom, as shown in the screenshot below.

Once you click the “Next” button

If this is the first time you've connected to Google Classroom, you'll have to grant permissions to TeacherMade to read your class data from Google. Google may request that you enter your password first, then ask you to approve the permissions. Be sure to grant ALL the permissions that TeacherMade requests or you will not be able to make assignments in Classroom.

Select a class and or students from your Google Classroom. You should see a list of each of your Google Classroom Courses. Choose one or more classes by checking the box to the left of the class name.

You can also choose whether to give the assignment to all the students in the class or to choose individual students. Note: if you choose All Students, even new students added later will receive the assignment. If you choose to select individual students, Google Classroom will not give the assignment to any students added after the creation of the assignment, though you can do that yourself in the Google Classroom application. 

Next, you will choose your scoring preferences and the tools your students will have access to. This step includes some options that are specific to Google Classroom:

• Assignment Status lets you create an assignment that becomes immediately available, or that becomes available at a date and time of your choosing. You can also save the assignment as a Draft in Classroom. If you do so, you will later have to login to Google Classroom to make that assignment available to your students.
• Auto-sync scores tells TeacherMade to send score updates to Google Classroom so that automatically appear in the Class's gradebook. It's the best!
• Google Classroom points sets the points for the assignment in Google Classroom. You can set this to any value you wish, though we recommend using the same value as displayed by TeacherMade. Google Classroom will score the assignment proportionate to the achieved points divided by the possible points for each student.
• Block students not in class will keep students from starting this assignment unless they are registered in this class. If you see students showing up in your submissions list who don't belong there, this might be the setting for you!

Once you hit “save,” your TeacherMade assignment will be published to the class and/or individual students you selected in your Google Classroom. You will also see a list of the students who started the assignment in the Assignment Detail screen.

Nice job! You've now created a TeacherMade assignment that your students will see in Google Classroom!
