Review the Scope & Sequence to Find Lessons
As best practice, we recommend reviewing the Mental Health + Prevention Scope and Sequence. This document makes it quick and easy to find a lesson based on student grade, theme, or lesson title. Once you've located a lesson you'd like to assign, make note of the lesson title to create the assignment as quickly as possible.
Step 1: Click “Lesson Library” from the left-side menu.

Step 2: Use a keyword or filter by grade level, theme, or CASEL competency to search the Lesson Library. If you have multiple libraries make sure you have the correct library set.

Step 3: To assign a lesson, click the Assign Lesson icon under Actions on the far right.
Note: Preview lesson content by clicking on the View icon under Actions.

Step 4: On the Create Mental Health Assignment page, enter an assignment title.
Note: The assignment title must be unique. Consider including unique identifiers such as date, group name, or class name.
Step 5: Choose the Assignment type, Group or Individual.

Step 6: Click Start date and End date to choose the date range for the assignment. The start date controls when the assignment first appears on the student dashboard. Note: Only assignments made to groups will appear on the admin/instructor home page.
Step 7: If needed, click the green toggle to turn off the “Repeat on Fail” option. You can also change the passing score next to the lesson title.

Step 8: Select your Assignee(s).
– For Group assignments, you can choose "Add grades" or "Add classes"
