Getting ‘Logged In’ to Your Classroom Web site
Creating a classroom Web site is fun – let’s get started!

The very first thing to do is open a Web browser. If you’re using a Mac, you must use
either the Firefox or Netscape (7.0 or higher) browser.


After going live:
Enter first name, last name and password at the login screen.

(If you need the url of the admin page, email scaher@buffaloschools.org)




                       4

Main Navigation Screen




In the upper right hand part of the screen, there are three key buttons to locate you during
the creation of your classroom site:




Main Navigation: locates you at the Main Menu pictured above. All tools are accessible
from here.

View Site: allows you to view your classroom Web site as you are working on it.

Logout: exits you from the administrative area of your classroom site.




                       5

Creating Web Pages

Pages can be created to display in as many sections as you’d like on your Web site. Under
the ‘My Site Content’ tab, the system displays Home Page, Resources and News. You have
the ability to change the title of those sections. For example, if you’d like to change the title
from Home Page to Main Page, simply click on edit Home Page, edit the text in the
Navigation Title field and hit SAVE.

Each of these Main Sections is a page itself and you can create unlimited tiers or sub pages
within each of these sections. You also have the ability to change the icons associated with
each section. To change an icon, simply click on ‘Change Icons’, and choose an icon. If
you’d like your icons to be a different size, click on the button labeled ‘Medium’ or ‘Small’,
then choose an icon. You also have the ability to upload your own icons by clicking on the
‘Upload own icons’ link.
