What can I access from the Teacher Dashboard?
Once teachers are signed in, their dashboard serves as their home base for managing their students in the ABCmouse app. From the dashboard, they can do the following:
- See their class code — a short code students use to log in at school (these codes expire; note the duration they’re good for)
- View a preview of their student roster
- Quickly navigate to Assignments, Printables, Curriculum, and FAQs

How do I assign activities to my class in ABCmouse?
ABCmouse for Teachers gives you access to hundreds of activities from the ABCmouse curriculum — including reading, math, science, social studies, art, and more. Teachers can hand-pick activities to assign to the whole class to work on in class or at home. To create an assignment:
- Click Assign Activities from your dashboard.
- Browse or search the activity catalog.
- Use the filters to narrow by subject, grade level, activity type, or language.
- Click +Class for each activity you want to assign to the class (up to 10 activities).

- Click Save Changes to save and have the assignment go live for the class.
Your students will see their assigned activities the next time they log in. You can edit an active assignment at any time by adding or removing activities. When students log in at home, they see only the activities you have assigned, which keeps at-home learning focused on your priorities.
