Think about how you might leverage the email signature as a time saver for you. This is a great place to include links to essential places for information; that might include a Google Calendar, teacher website, or webpage. Any district website links or calendars that are frequently requested make a perfect addition to your email signature.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/mail\/answer\/8395?hl=en&amp;co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Create a Gmail signature<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This can save you time answering the same questions over and over from parents.

If the email fits multiple topics give it the appropriate label and it will show up in both places. For example, the email has a lesson plan with a graphic organizer attached. You might want to give it both the label of \u201clesson plan\u201d and \u201cgraphic organizers.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/mail\/answer\/118708?hl=en&amp;co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Creating a label is simple<\/a>.
