Embedded Files
Our district is a Google Workspace for Education district, which means we use Google Apps like Docs, Slides, Sheets, and Forms to engage in digital content.
Docs is a word processor, Slides is a presentation tool, Sheets is great for data and uses spreadsheets, while Forms works for surveys and quizzes.
Working within Google programs helps students build valuable future ready skills and collaborate digitally. It also allows them to access their work from anywhere using their district Google account.
