Thanks once more to a teacher in the help forums who asked the following question: “How do I create a Google Calendar to share with parents via email?” Creating a Google calendar shared with parents is a very easy way to keep them updated about classroom events and homework. Using a Google Calendar in this way may eliminate some of the email flow into a teacher’s school inbox. One of the beauties of a Google Calendar is updates are shared with everyone immediately. All the parent or guardian has to do is check their Google Calendar on a regular basis to stay updated with classroom assignments and activities.
How to Create a Google Calendar
- Open Google Calendar
- Click Down Arrow
- Select Create New Calendar
- Type Calendar Name
- Type Calendar Description
- Add Parent’s Email Addresses
- Click Create Calendar Button
NOTE: The new calendar is found under my calendars
