To give a description to an assignment so that parents can know what the assignment entailed, open your gradebook, double click on the assignment and the "Assignment" dialog box opens at the bottom of your screen. In the Description area, simply type in the description and click Save.
To give a comment to a particular grade that a student received, while in your gradebook, right-click on the grade, select "Show Score Inspector" and type your comments in the Comment Box. Click Close.
Now you've expanded your communications to your parents! Parents will now see that the Assignment or the Grade will be blue instead of black to indicate that it is a hyperlink. All they need to do is to click on the hyperlink for more information!
