As we prepare for online instruction for the next couple of weeks, here are the instructions on how to log in to your Granite School District Google account from home.

1. Click on this link to go to Google.
2. In the upper right corner, there is a circle.  Click on that and sign in.  NOTE: Your parents or siblings may already be logged in.  If that is the case, just click Add another account.
3. Your login is your 444@granitesd.org.  The 444 means first four letters in your first name, first four letters in your last name, and first four digits in your 9 number.  (Example: If I were a student, mine would be erictayl9678@granitesd.org
   
4. Your password is the one you use to log in to your Chromebooks every day.  (Hint: My name and room number.)
5. This will reroute you to another page for Granite where you'll have to put in the information again.
6. Once you are logged in, you now have access to any and all tools that we use in class. 
7. Click on the 'waffle' next to your picture to get to Google Drive, Docs, Classroom, etc.
8. If you have any questions or are still not able to log in, please call or text me at 385-399-9678 (9MRT) or email at ectaylor@granitesd.org

IMPORTANT: Before you call me freaking out that you can't log in, please make sure you are spelling GRANITE correctly, and are including the SD.  Also make sure the @ symbol - which you get by holding down the shift key and pressing the 2 key - is before the GRANITESD and the dot (.) is after the GRANITESD, but before ORG. (NOTE TO PARENTS: I know this may seem like overkill in the instructions, but you have no idea what it's like trying to get 30 students logged in on Chromebooks.  It takes years off of the life of a teacher!)
