All students in the Colchester school district have their own Google accounts so that they can work on and save projects, use email, etc throughout their school years here. Kids in our class have already used the our class google account all throughout the year and have more recently worked with me to try out project tools like Google Slides. This week we took the next step and I taught all of the kids how to log in to their individual Google accounts! They will used these at school every year from here on out so I like to have my students start getting familiar with their own accounts at the end of first grade. That way they have some background knowledge about Google tools when starting second grade (and, holy cow, they are almost ready for second grade!).
If you would like to have your child try logging into their Google account at home (and maybe trying to create their own Google Doc or Slide if interested) their usernames and passwords all follow the format below:
Username: first.last@colchestersd.org (ie john.smith@colchestersd.org)
Password: birthdate in mm/dd/yyyy format ( ie 11052009)
