Hi, families! If your child’s teacher introduced Flipgrid into the classroom, welcome! We’re here to help!
What is Flipgrid?
Flipgrid is Microsoft’s free video discussion platform that helps millions of educators across the world better engage with and hear from their learners. To use Flipgrid, educators post discussion prompts and learners respond, anytime and anywhere, with short videos.
Getting Started
Your child can access their class Flipgrid from any computer with a webcam. Flipgrid is available on the web and via our iOS and Android apps. To learn more about students getting started, you and your child can watch this video.
Then, your child will follow these steps to access their classroom Group:
- Click the Join Link or enter the code from their educator at flipgrid.com.
- Log in with their school email or ID from their educator.
- Review the discussion prompt and record their video.
Family Learning: For Educators
If your child's teacher wants families to participate, there are many ways you can engage, too! Here are Topic ideas in which families can be included:
- Reading together
- Family interviews
- Birthday wishes
- Messages of positivity
- At-home experiments
- Shared physical exercise
