Parental Guidance

Canva is used for students to access the class materials using a link provided by the instructor. This access is view-only and does not require a user to have an account. However, if there is an independent activity in this course, the user will need a Canva account. In order to use Canva, a FREE email personal account will be required to create their account. If a learner is not old enough to create their own email account, a parent Canva account is acceptable for learners who are not able to open up an email account to create their own Canva account. None of the paid Canva features are required for this class, and the free Canva account will suffice. Young learners will need to know how to access their/your personal Canva account prior to the start of class.
