Organize Assignments Using Folders

Folders help you organize assignments within a class—group them by unit, quarter, assignment type, or any system that works for you.

Creating a Folder

Open Your Class

Open your class from the dashboard

Click New Folder

Click New folder in the assignments header

Name the Folder

Enter a folder name (e.g., “Unit 1: Civil War”, “Quarter 1”, “Essays”)

Create

Click Create folder

Your new folder will appear in the assignments list, ready for you to add assignments.

You can move any assignment into a folder:

Find Assignment

Find the assignment you want to move

Open Actions Menu

Click the actions menu (three dots) on the assignment row

Select Move

Select Move to folder

Choose Destination

Choose the destination folder (or “Unassigned” to remove from a folder)

Use the up and down arrows on the folder header to change the folder order.

When you delete a folder, the assignments inside are not deleted—they move to the “Unassigned” section.

Click on a folder header to expand or collapse it. This helps you focus on specific units or hide completed work.

Assignments not in any folder appear in the Unassigned section at the bottom. You can move them into folders at any time.

Organization Style	Example Folders
By Unit	”Unit 1: Foundations”, “Unit 2: Revolution”, “Unit 3: Constitution”
By Quarter	”Q1”, “Q2”, “Q3”, “Q4”
By Type	”Essays”, “Quizzes”, “Projects”, “Homework”
By Status	”In Progress”, “Grading Complete”, “Returned”

Choose whatever system helps you stay organized. You can always rename or reorganize folders later.
