Working with Google Classroom and Bakpax together is easy! Google Classroom users can choose single sign-on when creating their account, allowing them to access both accounts with one login. You can also import your Google Classroom and students. We make it easy to add links to Bakpax assignments for students on Google Classroom. Here’s how:
SINGLE SIGN-ON WITH GOOGLE
Teachers, as well as students over 13 years of age, can use Google single sign-on (SSO) to sign up for and log in to Bakpax.
ABOUT SINGLE SIGN-ON (SSO)
Using SSO will let you sign in just one time to get access to Bakpax and all your Google applications, including Google Classroom.
HOW TO GET STARTED
1. From my.bakpax.com, select Bakpax Teacher.
2. Then, to use single sign-on, select Google as your login method.
3. You will receive a verification email to your gmail account. Once you verify your account, you will be ready to use Bakpax.
You can access Bakpax with the same sign-on that you use to access your Google account and Google Classroom.
IMPORT YOUR GOOGLE CLASSROOM & ENROLL YOUR STUDENTS
You can import your Google Classroom and invite your class roster to Bakpax.
1. First, create a classroom in Bakpax by navigating to the Classrooms page and clicking Create a New Classroom.
2. Then, click Import Google Classroom. You will be prompted to sign in to your Google account and select your class.
3. Select your desired Google Classroom, the subject, and grade level, and then click Import.
4. Now, your students will be invited to your Bakpax classroom.
If students already have a Bakpax account, they will automatically be enrolled in your classroom.
If students do not have a Bakpax account, they will be invited by email to create one. Once they’ve created an account from the link, they will instantly be enrolled in your class.
*Please note that some schools will block students from receiving external emails. This means that your school may prevent students from receiving the Bakpax invitation email. Please ask your students to check their spam folder for the Bakpax email if they are unable to find it in their inbox. If they cannot locate it, they can always go to my.bakpax.com to create an account and join your classroom using the class code. (More information about class codes can be found here.)
ONE-CLICK SHARE TO GOOGLE CLASSROOM
We make it easy to share directly to your Google Classroom.
1. On the Bakpax assignment you want to share, click the Google Classroom icon to Share to Classroom.

If your account doesn’t appear, click Add account and sign in with your G Suite for Education account.
3. Click Choose class and select the class to share to. If you don’t have any classes, you’ll need to create one first.
