How to Create Classes on Ellii

As a teacher using Ellii, you will need to create classes and invite students to them. A class is required for assigning tasks (digital homework).

Please note: If you have not sent invitations to your students yet, please see our help doc with instructions on how to complete this step.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1

Once logged in to your account, click on Classroom and then select Classes from the drop-down menu.

Step 2

After landing on the Classes page, you will see all of your existing classes. Select the Create Class button.

Step 3

Enter a name for your new class.

You can also choose the level(s), age group(s) and skill(s) covered in your class. Please note that this will not be visible to your students.

You can also uncheck Use our new Lesson Planner format to use the classic format.

Click Save when finished.

Step 4

After saving your new class, you will land in the Student Activity tab inside the class page. Click on Add Students to start inviting students to that class.

Note: You can click on the class to see the students in your class, view student participation, export results or make any adjustments (add/remove students, edit the class name/description/level/age/skill/colour/banner, or delete the class).

Step 6

After clicking on the class, you can invite students by selecting the Student Activity tab then clicking on Add Students.

Step 7

You can remove students from the class via the Student Activity tab by clicking the More Options menu (...) by the student's name and choosing Remove from class.
