What's Inside Google Drive?
Your Google Drive may not look exactly like mine. I definitely have a lot of information in there. Please take a look at the basics before we begin:
First and foremost is the "Shared With Me" Tab on the left hand side. This is an important place as everything that I, or another teacher share with you is stored here. Activity 1. To create a New Folder, click New --> Folder. See photo to the right for reference.
Activity #2. You can create documents, polls, presentations and spreadsheets all within Google Drive! Let's Practice!!!
