Click the Edit button at the top of the assignment page.
Scroll down to the Assign section at the bottom of the assignment's edit page and click the +Add button at the bottom of the box.
The +Add button creates a new assign box underneath the original box that can be used to assign different dates to specified students. In the following steps, make changes to the fields in the lower, newly-created assign box. To ensure that the original dates still apply to everyone else in the class, do NOT modify the "Assign to" field or date fields in the original assign box.
In the "Assign to" field of the newly-created assign box, type the name of the student to which you'd like to give extended dates. As you type, search results will appear beneath this field. When the full name of the student appears, click the name to add that student to the box.
If multiple students need the same extended date, you may add additional students to the "Assign to" field of the same box by repeating this step for each student.
In the date fields of the new assign box, enter the extended due dates and availability dates that should apply to the student(s) that you added to this box in the previous step.
