The next thing you need to do before you start making your Bitmoji Classroom is to download the Bitmoji Chrome Extension. Yes, you do need to work in Chrome. If anyone knows if there is a similar extension for Firefox, Edge, Safari, etc. please let me know in the comment below. The other reason I suggest the Chrome Extension is because I will be asking you to use other Google apps (Slides, Classroom, Sites, etc.) and Google apps usually work more seamlessly when used together and not cross platform.
To get the Bitmoji Chrome Extension, click on this link: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/bitmoji/bfgdeiadkckfbkeigkoncpdieiiefpig?hl=en.
Click on the blue "Add to Chrome" button. This will put the Bitmoji app on your Chrome task bar. If you don't see this (
) icon on your Chrome task bar, you will need to pin it by clicking on the extension icon (
) and then click on the thumb tack next to the Bitmoji extension.

You will then need to sign in. Click on the Bitmoji icon and sign in using the same email and password you used to sign up. Once you are signed in, you have access to all the Bitmojis that are in the mobile app. You do not, however, have the ability to change how you look. If you ever want to change your outfit, your hair style, etc., you will have to go back into the mobile app.
Once you are signed in, you are ready to use Bitmoji in all kinds of places. You just click and drag it or right click-copy-paste.
You are almost ready to start making your Bitmoji Classroom. Before we jump in though, I would like you to take some time to reflect on what your actual classroom looks like and what elements you would like to include in your virtual one. See you tomorrow for Day 3 for our #EdTechTeacherChallenge.
Peace, Love and Happiness Always!
