Six steps to be ready to use Sumdog for the new academic year

Checklist

1. Set up your teacher account 

If you don't have an account yet, you'll need to create one. Here are the steps for creating a teacher account:

  1. Sign up here. Type in your first and last name, then click 'next'.
  2. Type in your email and add a secure password. You can use your work or private email, but we recommend using your work email. If you forget your password you can request a new one here
  3. You will need to agree to Sumdog's Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. Make sure you read through and understand these policies, then click the box to confirm. Please feel free to contact us if there's anything you're concerned about. Click 'next'
  4. A confirmation email will be sent to the email address you registered with. You must verify your account using the link in the confirmation email within 14 days. If the account is not verified within 14 days, the account will be deleted. To verify your account, click on the link in the email or copy and paste the web address into your browser
  5. Log into your account here. When you log into your account for the first time you will be prompted to search for your school and request to join it. 

2. Make sure your teacher account is in the correct school

If you've changed schools, you'll need to move your teacher account to your current school. If you are the only teacher on the school account, you will not be able to remove yourself from the school. Instead email support@sumdog.com and we will manually remove you from the school account.
