Making Elina Your Own

Enriching Elina with Group Profiles

3 min read

A group profile is the single most important thing you can fill in. It tells Elina who your group is, what you focus on, and what to keep in mind for every plan.

What to include

Add the age range, the size of the group, your pedagogical approach, languages spoken, and any group-wide considerations such as outdoor focus or mixed-ability planning.

Keep it living

Update the group profile whenever something changes — a new child joins, your theme shifts, or you start a new term. Elina uses the latest version every time.

Why it matters

A rich group profile means you spend less time re-explaining your context in chat. Plans, printables, and prompts all become tailored to your room from the first response.

Tip

Spend ten minutes on the group profile during your first week. It pays back many times over the rest of the year.
