There are many benefits to using online calendars as a part of classroom management. These calendars will be useful to me as a teacher, my future students, other members of the school community including other teachers, family members, etc.
As a teacher, I can quickly and easily add things to my google calendars. I can set up different calendars for different classes, along with personal, and other calendars. This can also help me communicate with students and parents about what assignments are due, what is happening in class, and what special events or birthdays are coming up. The principal can subscribe to my class calendar and then know what days would be good to visit.
I remember in elementary school getting calendars all of the time. There was a lunch menu calendar, a class calendar, a school calendar, a district calendar, and more. Using online calendars, such as google calendar, can make these all available online, and easy to organize in one customizable place.
