Edmodo

Edmodo helps teachers make their classroom a community by providing a safe and easy way for students to connect and collaborate online. Edmodo allows you to share content, access class homework, grades and school notices. 

The website was created in late 2008 by Nic Borg and Jeff O'Hara after seeing a need for evolving school environments to reflect how students live their lives and how they learn in school. They started Edmodo to promote anytime, anyplace learning.

The main functions of Edmodo include teachers posting messages, starting classroom discussions, assigning and grading classwork, sharing content and materials, and allowing students to share and trade ideas with one another.

Furthermore, Edmodo provides easy access to projects, school events, calendar, and more. Try Edmodo in your classroom, it may be the all in one classroom tool you've been looking for.
