Completing a Flipgrid Assignment

Flipgrid assignments may be found on your Assignments page with all other types of assignments. The teacher assigns a start and due date, as well as a point value for each assignment. Opening a Flipgrid assignment opens Flipgrid right within MATHiaFlex, eliminating the need for a grid code or QR code. Students already have a Flipgrid account that is tied to their MATHiaFlex account.

If you wish to complete a Flipgrid assignment on a mobile device, you do need to download and install the free Flipgrid app. You will still access your assignments through MATHiaFlex, but you will be asked to open the Flipgrid app when completing the assignment.

You also have access to the full Flipgrid on your Resources page to review past assignments and responses, reply to other students, or review comments and replies to your posts.
