A Parent's Guide to
Office 365
Using Microsoft Teams
There are two ways in which to use Microsoft Teams.
1. Using Teams through your browser (like Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari)
2. Using Teams by downloading and installing the Teams App (PC, MAC, iPad, iOs, Android)
Logging into Teams through a Browser
1. Follow the instructions in the Logging into Office 365 page first.
2. Click on the Teams icon
3. You may see a screen that looks like this asking if you want to download the Teams desktop app. Since we are going through a browser, we will choose “Use the web app instead’.
4. This will take you to the Microsoft Teams dashboard. Click on your classroom Team.
5. You are now in your classroom Team.
Logging into Teams Using the Teams App
1. First you will need to download the Teams App.
On a PC or MacBook, download it here:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/microsoft-365/microsoft-teams/download-app
On an Android or iOS (iPad) device go to your App Store.
2. When the application asks for your username, enter
Pupil Number@edu.burnabyschools.ca
e.g.
234534@edu.burnabyschools.ca
The password will be the one issued by your original home school and is the same as the one you log into your home school computers with.
3. You are now in Microsoft Teams dashboard through the App. Click on your Team name.
4. You are now in your Classroom Team
