Invaluable tutorial

Hi Folks,
I find this instruction sheet invaluable. I'm still looking for the teacher "make a team name" instruction but I'll find that step!

The instructions seem very kid and teacher friendly. As I cruise through what the students will need to do, and what I should have "top of mind" it brings back a lot of memories - and those little activities such as quality check.

tuts for teachers

Here's the teacher-focused tutorial I think you're referring to that shows how teachers create accounts for their student teams:
