For a step-by-step guide on developing your own program, you can watch our 'how-to' video.

1. Creating a program

• Click on the 'Dashboard' button in the top right-hand side of the page (or the 'Dashboard' button next to your class if you teach multiple classes)
• Click on the subheading ‘Programs’ (it’s between 'Assessments' and 'Lessons')
• Click the ‘Create program’ button, and choose a title and the week you would like to do the assessment (this date doesn’t matter)
• If you would like to share your created program with colleagues inside and outside your organisation, ensure that you tick the 'Shareable' box when creating your lesson. You can then choose whether you want to share only within your organisation or with everyone. When you share a program, you are also consenting to sharing any custom lessons within that program
• Click ‘Next’ and choose the skills you will be focusing on in your program (you can choose between 1 and 3 skills)
• Click ‘Next’. Now you can choose your lessons! All the KIDDO lessons that are relevant to the age group and skills you have chosen will be displayed, as well as any lessons you have created and lessons that have been shared with you from within and outside your organisation. Simply add the lessons you want and save your program!

NB: If you want to program lessons you have created yourself, you need to create them first. Instructions for how to create lessons can be found HERE

2. Uploading a program to appear on the dashboard

• Click on the 'Dashboard' button in the top right-hand side of the page (or the 'Dashboard' button next to your class if you teach multiple classes)
• Click on the subheading ‘Programs’ (it’s between 'Assessments' and 'Lessons')
• If you scroll down, you should be able to see all the KIDDO programs, plus the programs you have created
• Continue scrolling down to the Program Schedule
• Click 'Customise'. You will now be able to delete the KIDDO programs by clicking on the blue cross in the top right-hand corner of each program
• Drag and drop the program you created into the dates you would like it to run. It will now appear on your dashboard on the dates you have chosen

3. Sharing created programs with others

• When you create your programs, underneath the title and assessment week, tick the box to make your program shareable.
• You can then choose to share your program:
  • Only within your organisation - all staff members who have access to your school's KIDDO membership will be able to view your lesson
  • Everywhere - anyone who has a KIDDO membership will be able to view your lesson

4. Finding programs created by others

• Click on the 'Dashboard' button in the top right-hand side of the page (or the 'Dashboard' button next to your class if you teach multiple classes) 
• Click on the subheading ‘Programs’ (it’s between 'Assessments' and 'Lessons')
• Click on 'Find programs'
• If you want to find a program from within your organisation, you can search or scroll through 'Internal programs'
• If you want to find a program from outside your organisation, you can search or scroll through 'External programs'
• If you choose the program, it will automatically be saved to your custom programs

5.  Editing a program

You cannot edit any of the KIDDO programs, however, if there is a program you like but would like to make adjustments to, you can duplicate the program by following the instructions below:

• Click on the 'Dashboard' button in the top right-hand side of the page (or the 'Dashboard' button next to your class if you teach multiple classes) 
• Click on the subheading ‘Programs’ (it’s between 'Assessments' and 'Lessons')
• Click on the three dots next to the KIDDO program you would like to make changes to, and select 'Duplicate'
• From there, you can choose to change the elements of the program you need. When you reach the lessons, any relevant custom lessons you have created will be available for selection, as well as the KIDDO lessons
• Ensure that you click 'Save' to save your program!

To edit one of your own programs:

• Click on the 'Dashboard' button in the top right-hand side of the page (or the 'Dashboard' button next to your class if you teach multiple classes) 
• Click on the subheading ‘Programs’ (it’s between 'Assessments' and 'Lessons')
• Click on the three dots next to your program you would like to make changes to, and select 'Edit'
• Make the required changes and click 'Save' at the end

6. Changing the assessment date

The assessment date outlined in each ready-made program is simply a suggestion – you can assess whenever you like, simply by clicking on the 'Assessments' tab, which is located on your 'Overview' page within the class Dashboard. Click HERE to be taken back to the Support Menu, where you can find additional support for FMS Assessments, CAMSA Assessments, and Rubric Assessments.

When you create a program, you can input an assessment date of your choosing. To edit the assessment date in a custom program:

• Click on the 'Dashboard' button in the top right-hand side of the page (or the 'Dashboard' button next to your class if you teach multiple classes) 
• Click on the subheading ‘Programs’ (it’s between 'Assessments' and 'Lessons')
• Click on the three dots next to your program you would like to make changes to, and select 'Edit'
• Change the assessment date and click 'Save' at the end

7. Changing the weekly lesson

• If you simply want to change the lesson to a different lesson within the current 10-week program you are working from, go to the 'Dashboard' for your class and find the box containing the weekly lesson. You can move forward or backward through the program by clicking on the arrows in the bottom right-hand corner.
   
• If you want to change the entire lesson to one that is not in the current program you are working from, you need to: 
  • Go into your 'Dashboard' and find the subheading ‘Programs’ (it’s between 'Assessments' and 'Lessons').
  • You will see all the programs listed. Scroll down to the Program Schedule and click on the ‘Customise’ button. 
  • You will then be able to delete the current program. If you change your mind or delete a program in error, you click the ‘Revert’ button and it will automatically revert to the original KIDDO program.
  • Go back to the top of the page where the programs are listed and drag the program you would like to use into the Program Schedule on the dates you would like it to be used.

Note: You can create your own lessons by clicking on the subheading ‘Lessons’ and then ‘Create Lesson’. You can then create a program of your created lessons by clicking the ‘Create Program’ button within the subheading ‘Programs’.

8. Aligning the KIDDO program dates with your school terms

The KIDDO programs align with the public school term dates in each Australian state or territory. You can change the dates of the KIDDO program to align with your school term dates by following the instructions below.

• First, check that your term dates are correct
  • In the ⚙ ‘cog’ section click on ‘Term dates’
  • Click 'Customise'
  • Click on the 3 dots to the right of each term and click 'Edit'
  • Edit the term dates to suit your school term and then click 'Save'
  • Repeat for all terms
  • You can add additional terms by clicking the 'Add' button
  • You can revert to the public school term dates at any time by clicking the red 'Revert' button 
• Now you can align the KIDDO programs with your school terms
  • In the ⚙ ‘cog’ section click on ‘PE Scope & Sequence’
  • Choose the year group you would like to customise using the drop-down menu or clicking directly on the year group
  • Scroll down to the program schedule and click 'Customise'
  • Click and hold on the blue program you would like to move and then drag it to the appropriate dates
  • Alternatively, click the 'x' in the top right-hand corner of each program to delete it. You can then drag and drop a program from the list above into the appropriate term dates
  • You can revert to the KIDDO programs at any time by clicking 'Revert'

9. I customised the programs, but now I would like to go back to KIDDO’s suggested programs. How do I do this?

• In the ⚙ ‘cog’ section, click on ‘PE Scope & Sequence’
• Choose the year group you would like to revert by using the drop-down menu or clicking directly on the year group
• Scroll down to the program schedule and click 'Revert'
