Annotation tools
If your teacher has enabled annotation, you can draw, type, or stamp on a shared screen or

whiteboard as part of the lesson. Click View Options at the top of the screen, then
choose Annotate, which will open up the toolbar. Follow your teacher’s directions for using

the annotation tools with the lesson.
Breakout Rooms

Breakout Rooms are a fun way to meet in smaller groups separate from the main Zoom

session. Sometimes, you may be assigned to join a specific Breakout Room, and other times,
you may be able to select which Breakout Room to join. If your teacher allows you to self-

select a room, click the Breakout Rooms icon at the bottom of your screen and select from a
list of open rooms. Your teacher may send directions to your room or enter the room at any

time to check on your group.
In-meeting chat

Follow your teacher’s directions when using the in-meeting chat panel. Your teacher may ask

you to type questions or share ideas in the chat, or you may be able to send a message directly
to the teacher if you need to share something private. Remember to be respectful of your

classmates while chatting, and follow any classroom rules!

Nonverbal feedback

Click the Reactions icon at the bottom of your screen to use nonverbal feedback, which will
allow you to communicate with your teacher without disrupting the class. You can raise your

hand, indicate “yes” or “no” by using the checkmark or X icon, and even ask your teacher to

speed up or slow down their lesson using the forward or back arrows.
Nonverbal feedback is persistent, meaning the icon will appear on your video until your

teacher clears it. If you selected an icon by accident and want to remove it, simply select it
again.
