Classroom Facebook Page

Creating Your Account

(This will not be your classroom Facebook page but an account to link your classroom Facebook to, so that your personal page will not be linked)

1. Open the Facebook homepage at https://facebook.com You will need to be at least 13 years old to create a Facebook account. Facebook accounts are free, but you can purchase things for your Facebook account. You can only create one Facebook account per email address.
2. Enter in your information. On the Facebook homepage, enter in your first name, last name, email address, password, birthday, and gender. You must use your real name for your account. Nicknames are allowed as long as they are a variation on your real name (Jim instead of James, for example).
3. Click the “Sign Up” button. If all of your information is correct, you will be sent a verification email to the address you provided.
4. Open the verification email. It may take a few minutes for the email to get delivered. Click the link in the email to activate your account.

5. In the top, right corner you will see a triangle shape. Click on that to get a drop down. Click on “Create a Page.”
