Features
Portfolios
ClassDojo Portfolios allow learning to be shared specifically between the teacher and pupil. Teachers can also assign projects directly to student devices to which students can respond. Parents and teachers can leave positive feedback in the form of a like and/or comments.
​
Stories
Stories are instantly updating streams of messages, pictures and videos similar to a social media-style timeline. Every class and school has their own Story, all of which are shared home with all parents. School Story helps teachers to share with all families connected to their school while Class Story helps teachers to share with all families connected to their class.
Messages
Messages allow teachers and parents to instantly message each other, without needing to share phone numbers or contact details. Messages can be translated into 30+ different languages, and “Quiet Hours” lets teachers set away times so parents know when they are not available. Messages sent out of hours will not be seen by the teacher until the next working day.
​
Dojo Points
Teachers use Class Dojo to promote positive behaviours in their classroom.
Each child gets a monster avatar, and teachers can award Dojos for things such as staying on task, meeting a times table target, fantastic teamwork or brilliant homework.
