Generated pack cards are one-time outputs created for a student, such as worksheets, word games, quizzes, articles, or videos. Parents can archive a card to remove it from the student's Nest without deleting its recurring pack setup or learning history.
Mark a Nest card complete for your child
If your child finishes a lesson but forgets to mark its Nest card complete, you can update that individual material on the HomeTrail website.
- Open Day and select the date the material was planned for, or find it in Planner week or month view.
- Find the material's own Mark complete button. Materials can appear as separate dated cards or underneath an activity. You can also open the activity editor and find the button under Lesson materials.
- Select Mark complete. The material shows Completed, and its Nest completion updates immediately. You do not need to save the activity for this action.
To correct a mistake, select Mark incomplete on that material. Saved answers, uploads, and review feedback remain available.
Completion controls are available for ready materials dated today or earlier. A future, archived, or still-generating card cannot be marked complete here. Restore an archived card first.
When a material is attached to an activity, marking it complete does not complete the activity or its other materials. Use the activity's separate completion control when the whole lesson is finished. Parent corrections do not send a child-completion text notification.
Archive a generated pack
- Open Plus Hub, then choose Nest.
- Find the card under What's in Nest. Use All recent if it is not listed under Today.
- Select Archive, then confirm.
The card leaves the active parent queue and the student's Nest. Its saved recurring setup, submitted work, and HomeTrail history remain available.
Restore an archived pack
- Open the Archived view under What's in Nest.
- Find the card and select Restore.
Restoring makes the card available in Nest again. Student Skip is separate from parent cleanup, although skipped cards can also be reviewed from the Archived view.
Stop a recurring pack
Archiving a card does not stop tomorrow's card. Turn off the saved pack schedule to prevent future daily generation.
Ask TrailGuide: “Stop the Weather pack for Sam.” It turns off that student's recurring schedule and keeps existing cards. To hide those cards too, say “Stop the Weather pack for Sam and archive its existing cards.” Saved answers and learning history remain available. A pack already generating may still finish.
On the website, open Plus Hub → Nest, find Weather in the pack catalog, and select Set up pack. Open the student's menu and choose Disable Pack. You can also choose Remove from Pack to remove the saved setup entirely.
In the HomeTrail parent app, open Plus Hub → Nest → Weather, then select View Generated Pack for the student. In that pack's detail sheet, tap the trash icon and confirm Remove. This removes the student's saved pack setup. Use the website if your app version does not show these controls.
To archive or restore a single generated card without changing its recurring schedule, use the Nest page controls described above.
