First one to be talkin about a building out teacher pages talking to your pages in general or look at a teacher paid that is it up without really a whole lot of bells and whistles and what can what can be added to that teacher page before we jump over and look at them real life teacher pages and we'll go ahead and replicate some of the stuff we're seeing on those pages on this piece of already set up so we can see how it's really kind of set up a little bit y'all make it look as good as it can be right so you have a lot to get two switches. What's hop right to it okay to this come over here to our admin site of the first thing you want to do is log in to Heaven's Sake what say you know you're a new wearable clients IND haven't logged into the admins that yet but you're added you as a user to your site if not we are going to contact and if it's your first time ever logging in and you know you're not sure of your your password anything going to create or reset a password and go ahead follow the steps you'll be able to log in and set up your password but go ahead and log in here all right I've entered the password their folks my apologies there we go success we are in all right awesome if you were a teacher and you're logging and you're going to see something very similar to this if you are a web admin you're probably going to see a whole lot more than this as an admin you have access to a lot more features when it comes to a teacher's e-mail you just with regular access here we try to limit it but you didn't you some accept all your pages calendars and he was going to put out their buylist things like that so again if you are a teacher at this is what you should be seeing when you first in and up here if you want to go ahead and add to two Factor authentication we always recommend doing that make that account as secure as possible all right now the first thing that I want to go ahead and I do hear what's the start with I'm up here how do teachers get your teacher page or how do users get their teacher paid right now so let's just say this is your site here that were using rylo high school today you see that up here so normally your your staff directory is high are you just we'll get there you can have it in your site navigation up here or a lot of times if you have a quick links on your homepage on a school so glad they had them there so quickly cut the bottom of our page the command staff directory all right I'm going to go ahead and click on my name here I am Danny Benson all right and this is my current teacher page it's not bad you know I have some information here a little bit about myself I have a PDF fear of a classroom expectations for my students and it's a little video I batted here as opposed to know it's it's fine enough information but yeah we can definitely do more with it I saw the first thing I want to do is come over here the admin site my profile I want to go up here to account profile I want to go ahead and add a photo of myself there we go all right you can crop that photo if you like I'm going to keep this one as is edit your profile and add any other animation about yourself you want contact information things like that with your name and your email address here you want to add any sort of a other information will see a lot of teachers using this like the other space here to add another vacation things like that so that I can add that there my info again I was a schoolteacher myself for a little while here a lot of us a Ted Leo where we have a lot of former teachers year I was go ahead he'll see we can add phone number I'll add my school number here just in case any parents need to get a hold of me I'm going to say that okay I want to go and just refresh this real quick so you can see something here information now my profile photo here is on my teacher page come down here is my phone number if I don't want to spend you know I was talking to display my email automatically but that I don't want to send me an email and then go and click on that and I'll send me a form email that's all I depend on your a settings found in your your admin site there I got to sit at the admin level so you got to speak to them about how that is set up around here for more info I'll have my education there if anyone if you are users want to go in your page and subscribe to it here click on that the answer there like information here anytime you make any sort of update to your page will be notified about those updates and then on top of that you don't have his this information here their email address things like that you can go ahead and send out letters information to anyone who Subs drive to your page and just make specific that you really want them to know about I'm so it's really great to encourage people to go ahead and subscribe to your personal page your teacher page all right so I'm over here when I go back over to the Batman sign holding out his teacher Pedro see what we can adhere to go back to main dashboard Hear What I Hear two pages I can also go up here to Hamburger drop-down menu page management and pages OK Google first time ever ever ever lost in you shouldn't really have anything here you might see a quote here and I'm at a pay we've already done that here so I added a page and this first one has popped up that's like this now the other things we can add so we can add a blank page if you want we can link to another page you want to like link to a Google Classroom as a external site that we tell people using it's really like covid-19 information things like that you had linked to another page and then here we have our Picture Pages the right now I already have our calendly art, our calendar set up here are videos of videos as well and so I went ahead and added a video before and added as a post we have our photo albums feature and links feature any important links that you want you are a school Community to go ahead and visit there what's going here all right so I'm building a what are the things that you can add right we recommend you do a welcome message contact information about yourself homework assignments calendar maybe some parent resources or class news and awards things like that but I have a little bio about myself here in classroom expectations if I wanted to hear from the top of our layout have this one set up where our section menu is here on the left now again if we come over here any page that we see these here calendar videos post would come over here these are all of these Pages here so I add another page right now that but that page will be added to that section many we were just looking at nobody added over here on the public facing

it's how I added this information up here with using a Content block I need to embed anything you can do that up here little source code button here I think Jenna is a pretty standard text editor right so if you used any sort of any any sort of steam at anything like that I'm sure you know how to use is pretty intuitive you can also add down here photos file so that's how I edit PDF here or supply list feature of buttons will get that in a second and any links that you want to add to the quick a little overview of things that you can add their height but now let's get into the real star
