Google Classroom

In the NH Interim Learning Program many students are using Google Classroom to interact in learning activities and instruction. There is an app for Google Classroom that students and parents can download onto their devices (tablets or mobile phones). Students can adjust notifications to be notified whenever a teacher posts. You can also download Google apps such as Docs, Sheets, and Slides to use on your devices.
