How to sign up for SCHOOLOGY!!!!

Mr. Parsons – 7th Grade Blue Team World History

Step 1: Using your Internet browser, go to www.schoology.com.

Step 2: Click on the big blue box that says “Sign up for free.”

Step 3: You should get a screen with three choices. Choose “student” and click on it.

Step 4: You will get a screen that asks for a password. Each class has a different one, so make sure that you use the correct one! Each one is IN ALL CAPS, AND INCLUDES THE DASH! If you don’t type it in exactly, it won’t work.

Step 5: Enter password. (PASSWORDS ARE ON THE BACK OF THIS PAGE! Make sure you sign up for AYOUR CLASS ONLY!!!))

Step 6: A screen will come up asking you for information. Your first and last name, your email address (you have to have one for this to work!!!), and a password. MAKE SURE YOUR PASSWORD IS A WORD AND A NUMBER!!! (EX: Parsons1) You will repeat this where it says “confirm password.”

Step 7: If all goes well, you will be taken to a screen that says “Welcome to Schoology!” Here you will find two choices on the screen. Choose “edit profile.”

Step 8: A box will pop up that will allow you to access your new profile. You can add birthday and gender information and also pick a profile picture (upload one or use one of the generic ones they give you!).

NOTE: Do NOT add your home address or your phone number to this contact information section. Why? Well, privacy is important and we don’t want everyone and anyone to have that info! So, just leave it blank!!!

Step 9: Once you have finished with your profile, click “Save.”

Step 10: Next, go to the left hand side of your page and click GROUPS.

Step 11: Your screen should have one group on it: WORLD HISTORY: 7TH GRADE BLUE TEAM: PERIOD ___. Click on that, and it will take you to your class’s group page! This is the page where you’ll find assignments and posts.

Step 12: Look for the two posts I left behind. One asks you simply to leave a little message to let me know you made it! The other one is a five sentence paragraph. Follow the instructions under the post. Under my post, click “comment” and type your response in the box that comes up. Then, when you are done, click “Post!”

Step 13: Play around with the site and make sure you log off when you’re done! (on back…)

Remember: only members of your class (and Mr. Parsons!) can access this particular group, no one else. Be kind and respectful in your posts and make sure that you keep anything you type school appropriate, or you’ll run into trouble!!!! Above all, have fun!

Any questions you might have, make sure you ask. You can send me messages in Schoology, or you can email me at and ask there! I’ll make sure to message you back or hit your questions up with answers in class!!!!
