Setting Up a Classroom
For teachers: share a class code so parents can join, assign stories at each child's level, and read class analytics — with no student email addresses required.
How do I open the teacher dashboard?
After approval, sign in and open storykind.tech/teacher/overview. Apply at /teacher-signup if you only have a parent account (usually within two business days) or email [email protected]. From the Teacher Dashboard you can share a class code, assign themes, and view class analytics.
How do parents join my class without student logins?
Students never create accounts. Copy the class code (or Show parent letter) and send it to families. Parents sign in, open My Children → Join a class, enter the code, review what you can see (first name, age, level, quiz scores — not last name or email), and confirm. If join fails, the parent can enable Classroom sharing and send you a Child ID to paste under Students.
How do I assign stories to the class?
Open Stories & Assignments, optionally choose a genre overlay, and Assign to All Students. Each story still uses that child's level and interests. Assignments spend the family's remaining stories (paid: up to 3 per day per child). Children at the cap are skipped by name. You can also assign to one student from their profile.
How do I read class analytics?
Class Overview lists Lexile, comprehension, and stories read. Use Inactive / Never to spot non-readers. Open a student for Lexile progression and recent assignments. Comprehension under 65% may need an easier level; low WPM suggests more Duet practice.
What about student privacy in a classroom?
Teachers see only what parents consent to share after joining. No student emails or last names. For school DPAs and retention, see the Trust centre and email [email protected] for class-size pricing.
