Accessing the Student Activity Library 

Activities in the (default) Teacher Library are designed to be teacher-led and cannot be assigned to students. To view Independent Practice Activities that students can complete independently, click on "Student Library" at the top right of the Activity Library page. 

For details on assigning Independent Practice Activities, see our How To Assign an Independent Practice Activity guide.

The activities in this library are the same ones students can access in the Suggested Activities section of their Wayfinder dashboard. For more information on what students see when they log in, see our Understanding the Student View guide.
