Your Google Apps Account

You will only use your school-issued Google account for classes this summer. You may not use a personal email or google account.

You will work in Google Drive to create and submit assignments for your class.

You should check your email and your class folders each morning as soon as you wake up. This will allow you to

keep up to date on the latest assignments.

Class Folders

Your teacher has shared a folder with you. Please move this folder to "My Drive".

Each folder serves a different purpose.

Make sure you know the role of each folder. You teacher will make it very clear where your assignments can be found, and where your personal assignments should be turned in.
