It's a check-in step built into Present mode, not a separate page. It lets you confirm who's joined before you move into the lesson content - handy for making sure no one's left waiting at the start. ![3bebd4be-86ee-11f1-9cfa-9e1abbbf5f44](https://help.wellioeducation.com/hubfs/3bebd4be-86ee-11f1-9cfa-9e1abbbf5f44.avif) If you're seeing it instead of your lesson, it usually just means you haven't clicked through to start presenting yet. The Student Readiness screen only appears in Present mode. You won't see it in the slide preview on the lesson's ***Prepare*** tab. ### How to start presenting: 1. From the lesson's ***Prepare*** tab, look to the top right corner of the screen and click the purple ***Present*** button. ![Screenshot 2026-10-07 at 4.58.31 PM-1](https://help.wellioeducation.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-10-07%20at%204.58.31%20PM-1.png?width=644&height=448&name=Screenshot%202026-10-07%20at%204.58.31%20PM-1.png) 2. You'll see the **Student Readiness** screen - this is a normal part of Present mode. It shows you which students have joined the lesson so far. ![3bebd4be-86ee-11f1-9cfa-9e1abbbf5f44](https://help.wellioeducation.com/hubfs/3bebd4be-86ee-11f1-9cfa-9e1abbbf5f44.avif) 3. **Optional:** Click ***Send login links*** to prompt students to sign in via email. You can also use ***Manage Students*** to add any missing students to the class, if need be.  As soon as a student opens this week's lesson on their own device (either via the login link, or by logging in any other way), their card lights up and flips to **Ready** - no need to refresh the page. 4. When you're ready to begin the lesson, click to the next slide using the mouse or the right-arrow key. - [Getting Started](https://help.wellioeducation.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Getting started as a teacher](https://help.wellioeducation.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#getting-started-as-a-teacher) - [Getting students started](https://help.wellioeducation.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#getting-students-started) - [IT Setup](https://help.wellioeducation.com/it-setup?hsLang=en#main-content) - [SSO](https://help.wellioeducation.com/it-setup?hsLang=en#sso) - [Whitelisting](https://help.wellioeducation.com/it-setup?hsLang=en#whitelisting) - [Teacher & Class Enrolments](https://help.wellioeducation.com/it-setup?hsLang=en#teacher-class-enrolments) - [For Admins](https://help.wellioeducation.com/for-admins?hsLang=en#main-content) - [IT Setup](https://help.wellioeducation.com/for-admins?hsLang=en#it-setup) - [Onboarding](https://help.wellioeducation.com/for-admins?hsLang=en#onboarding) - [Planning your sequences](https://help.wellioeducation.com/for-admins?hsLang=en#planning-your-sequences) - [Managing accounts](https://help.wellioeducation.com/for-admins?hsLang=en#managing-accounts) - [Planning Your Sequence](https://help.wellioeducation.com/for-admins?hsLang=en#planning-your-sequence) - [Lesson Tools & Delivery](https://help.wellioeducation.com/lesson-tools-delivery?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Delivering a lesson](https://help.wellioeducation.com/lesson-tools-delivery?hsLang=en#delivering-a-lesson) - [Editing content](https://help.wellioeducation.com/lesson-tools-delivery?hsLang=en#editing-content) - [For Students](https://help.wellioeducation.com/for-students?hsLang=en) - [Insights](https://help.wellioeducation.com/insights?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Activity Dashboard](https://help.wellioeducation.com/insights?hsLang=en#activity-dashboard) - [Surveys](https://help.wellioeducation.com/insights?hsLang=en#surveys) - [Student Profiles](https://help.wellioeducation.com/insights?hsLang=en#student-profiles) - [Articles For Teachers](https://help.wellioeducation.com/articles-for-teachers?hsLang=en) - [Troubleshooting & Help](https://help.wellioeducation.com/troubleshooting-help?hsLang=en) - [Teacher and Class Enrolment](https://help.wellioeducation.com/teacher-and-class-enrolment?hsLang=en) - [Parent Webinars](https://help.wellioeducation.com/parent-webinars?hsLang=en) - [Knowledge](https://help.wellioeducation.com/knowledge?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Professional Learning Resources for Schools](https://help.wellioeducation.com/knowledge?hsLang=en#professional-learning-resources-for-schools) [![Untitled design](https://help.wellioeducation.com/hubfs/Untitled%20design.svg "Untitled design")](https://www.wellioeducation.com) Teach wellbeing with confidence.
