2. Click on the "Class Story" tab
3. Tap on "Photo/Video" to add a photo or video. (You can add mp4 videos up to 8 minutes long). Tap "File" to upload an attachment (we currently support the following file attachments: PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Text, and CSV). Tap "Record" to record a video directly on our site. (Videos can be up to 8 minutes long). Tap "Event" to add a Classroom event to your Class Story feed.
