Bridging the Communication Gap: The Power of Google Classroom Guardian Summaries |
Participate and share : Poster

Parent communication is paramount to student success, but it can be seen as daunting, simply because of the extra work that teachers must do to make it happen. Google Classroom Guardian Summaries solve all of those concerns since they're automatic. Learn how to use this incredible Google Classroom feature.

By the end of the session, attendees will be able to:
- Have a better understanding of Guardian Summaries
- Utilize the letter format provided to customize for their own parents
- Understand the email that Guradians receive once signed up
This idea was implemented by me in the intermediate and elementary buildings I support, and has been successful. Teachers have been able to invite a wide amount of parents into their Classrooms, making it so they receive those summaries in a timely manner, since most of their classes heavily utilize Google Classroom.
