Learning Google Docs - Beginner Lessons | Distance Learning
By Innovations in Technology
The “Learning Google Docs” Beginner Lessons start students with no previous knowledge of Google Docs on a path of learning the most important and frequently used commands to give them a quick start. Each lesson has a short, step-by-step tutorial that includes screenshots to walk students through the new tools they will use in the lesson. Then, they are given a creative task to solve, using those skills to create a document. There are five lessons, each taking no more than two (50 minute) class periods.
This lesson has been revised to be compatible with the latest version of Google Docs (2-2020) and also includes the older instructions and resources that were included with the original lesson for previous purchasers who are re-downloading the lesson. The older lessons are included in their own folder within the .zip file.
This lesson was created for middle school (grades 6-8) but could also be used with upper elementary or high school students.
This lesson is great for distance learning/remote learning. You can upload it to your school's learning management system (Google Classroom, Edmodo, Canvas, etc.) or share with students via Google Drive.
Files Included with this Lesson
• Teacher Notes and Resources
• 5 Mini Lessons with Tutorial and Creative Project including rubrics

Fall Pixel Art in MS Excel or Google Sheets
By Innovations in Technology
Need a fun way to introduce Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets to upper elementary or middle school students? This great lesson lets students learn the basics of Microsoft Excel (or Google Sheets) as they create pixel art using the program. First, they'll create a quick pixel art from a given example and then they'll create their own! These are also fun lessons to use if you just need something for a one day lesson.
I've used this with 7th and 8th graders who used their free time to create even more art! I hope your students have as much fun as mine did learning Excel or Google Sheets!
Materials Required
· Computers with Internet access for each student (or pair of students)
· Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets
Files Included
