Hello there, @Helencjones ...
I am not sure if you are an instructor or a student. If you are a student, you may need to reach out to your instructor directly to find out how to begin your assignment. You can contact your instructor by following the information in this Guide: How do I get help with Canvas as a student? - Canvas Community
We also do not have access to your school's Canvas environment or your course(s) in question, so it would be difficult to troubleshoot any course curriculum-related issues that there might be as it relates to your assignment(s).
Here are some short video tutorials for you that provide general information on how assignments work in Canvas. These may be of help to you:
Hopefully this will be enough to get you started, but if Community members can be of further help, please let us know...thanks!
