  • If you can't find it, get the link from our youtube site and insert it that way



Inserting a file: 
  • Google comes with a great document sharing program called "google docs" or now "google drive" 
  • You can install google drive for free on your desktop so whenever you put something in google drive you will be able to see it online as well. 
  • Once you type in your final lesson plan in our template, you can share it to your google drive. 
  • two ways: 
    • If you installed google drive you just put it in that folder
    • If you have not installed google drive you go to google drive online and upload the document from there. 
  • Go to the document in google drive (online) 
  • Click the share button
  • Click who has access and change the setting from private to anyone with a link can view it.
  • Click Save and Copy the URL of the lesson plan
  • Type in Lesson Plan, highlight it and click LINK
  • Paste the link inside the web address box
  • Click "test the link" to see if it works
  • Click "open in new window"
