[ARCHIVED] How to add another child to my account?

[mrosenbaum]

I already have an account set up for one child.  How do I add another child to the same account?

Hi Michele -

After you have your student's pairing code. Then you can click Account then Settings then Observing. On this screen, you'll be able to link a student to your account by entering the pairing code in the box.

After your student is linked, you'll see both students' courses on your dashboard. It can be a little overwhelming at first, but with nicknames, color coding, and the ability to click-and-drag to rearrange your dashboard, it's manageable! Canvas Parent is also a great tool, and it's super easy to look at one student at a time!

If you want to learn more about the Observer role or pick up some new tips and tricks, I wrote a blog that summarizes everything: Clarity for Canvas Observers‌. Let me know if you have any additional questions! I'd be happy to help!
