Forms + Sheets= Awesomeness

I love that Google Forms data can go into one Sheets Workbook! So many options, here are a couple of ways that work for me

Classroom Banner

Change Slides or Google Drawing to 800x200 pixels to customize a Google Classroom header. Traci and I had fun making the video to explain.

Love the Forms!

I have always loved Google Forms but it seems it keeps getting more robust!

• Upload files (images, docs, & more) outside of your domain. I think this is going to change the baby pictures in yearbooks forever! Do kids still buy yearbooks?
• Use the Checkbox Grid to get more in depth information 
• Use preferences to save time

Add a border to Docs

I love that we can now add borders and colors to paragraphs in Google Docs! Just select the text you want to jazz up, click on Format, and then choose paragraph styles! From there you can add borders, border style/color and fill color! This would be great to have kiddos choose one paragraph they want to be assessed before a final paper is turned in, to create a newsletter or visually appealing lessons, and to highlight big ideas.

Cookie Monster

Although I try and always use different Chrome Profiles, recently I messed up and mixed my Google accounts! What this meant is every time I opened my school Google Drive I was in my personal Drive. To fix this I followed Google's instructions to "Clear cache and cookies". I usually have no problem clearing cookies or cash in my life and Google made it true in my digital life as well. Simply go to your Chrome Settings, choose More Tools and then Clar Browsing Data. Make sure you get rid of the cookies and cached files and boom it works.
