12. Students must be placed in the ladder as per the current levels not from the first milestone.
13. Never give Teacher Tablet to your students (if there is anything you need to show them on teacher tablet, do it during your presence only, but don’t leave it their hands)
14. When can I start transferring my students from Teacher Tablet to Student Tablets?

Unless you are very comfortable to do, DO NOT transfer the students from your Teacher tab to Student tabs (During the classroom setup orientation, you will have an opportunity to demonstrate this step with the help of your MC, so please wait until you learn how to do this step). 

But meanwhile you should divide your class 1 and 2 students in to 4 groups following the grouping criteria and decide on which 4 students will be on which student tablets. Carry this list with you to the School Setup orientation location to discuss with your MC if any questions.
15. Your ALA Master Coach is just a phone call away to help you answer any questions you may have in this regard and to get ready with your tablets to use in your classroom.
16. Please use ‘Options’ feature on your RT login screen(on Top left corner) for your language selection only. 

DO NOT play with rest of the features in it as there is a chance that you will lose all your classroom data.
