To use Amira on HMH Ed™, you must log in to Ed, (if necessary) set up class rosters, associate Amira to your classes, and then open Amira from Ed.
1. Log in to Ed.
2. Depending on how your district sets up classes, do either of the following:
– If your classes are managed by your administrator, verify that the class set up is correct. (See Manage Class Rosters for details.)
– If you have to set up your own rosters, add your classes and then add students to your classes. (See Add a New Class for details.)
Important: As a teacher, you must select the programs that are available for your classes. If Amira is available to your school, you must specify which of your classes have access to this program.
3. Select Amira for your classes by doing the following:
a. Click the My Classes tab. The My Classes page appears with a list of all your classes.
b. Locate the classes for which you want to enable Amira, and depending on the class status you are managing, do either of the following:
○ To set up Amira for a new class, click the Choose Programs button.
○ To add Amira to an existing class, click the View Class button, and then on the left panel of the Assignments Overview page, click Program Settings.
The Program Settings page appears listing all the available programs purchased by your district. Individual programs are displayed in boxes grouped by subject. Each program has a corresponding check box to indicate whether it is selected for this class.
The first time that you open this page for a newly created class, the check boxes for all programs are clear (turned off). By default, your classes do not have access to any programs until you specify the programs that are available for each of class.
c. For each class that should have access, locate and select the check box for Amira and, if necessary, clear the check box for the classes that should not have access.
The settings are as follows:
On =
Off =
d. Click Save and Update to save the changes. A dialog box appears confirming that you have successfully saved the changes to your programs.
