Google docs

Let's look at GoogleDocs Text files. These are word processing files. It is a great tool that helps you create the basic documents you use everyday like handouts, instructions, books, or even a newsletter!

That is the activity we are going to do now. We are going to create a newsletter together that tells parents at our school all about what is going on this month. We want to especially focus on our Back to School Night

I will create a document and then you will join as co-editors to fill out the details.

Here's the link to the presentation : http://goo.gl/6MJwH

Now to practice it together:

• I will create a presentation: Welcome to our Internet Safety Open House

• You will add details

  • Staying Safe Online

  • Recognizing Real Sites and accurate information

  • Safe sites to visit

• We will view it together

Google Spreadsheets are just like paper Spreadsheets. Great right that explains it all, maybe These videos will help!

We are going to create two spreadsheets. The first is for practice with Spreadsheets and will help you learn how to 'run the numbers' yourself. The second is going to be some data we want to collect about our participants at the Back to School Night. What might we want to know?

• Age of the attendee

• Number of children at the home

• Internet access
