I wish we could email her district. I’d like to point out that the district is discouraging her from helping other teachers over money. Educators are supposed to help other educators and her district has stopped her from doing that... over greed in money. I’d pay her district to allow Michelle to continue supporting and helping teachers like myself. I’m just saying, I love Michelle and all her ideas has helped me be a better teacher. Her district is LUCKY to have her and they obviously KNOW it because they aren’t willing to let her share the knowledge she has. #alittlebitter Thank you for always being there Michelle. My students have gained so much because of your influence. Teachers need other teachers to support them and give them ideas. Thank you for being there even through this obstacle. I appreciate you!
I with you! My teacher just give us an assignment in the comments section where not many of us did not know about it. I notice of how my English teacher didn’t give us any assignments on google classroom recently. I went into the post my teacher did and notice that my English teacher have given us a assignment to work for on a comment section. I did not know about until know. I sent this video to my teacher and hope it help.
Sitting here, trying to create fillable documents for my Interior Design clients and realizing (not for the first time) how much extra work teachers do!!! Seriously. Every. Single. Teacher...should be making buku bucks, especially during COVID! This was a very helpful video. Thanks to all the educators out there helping kiddos learn remotely.
I'm from Indian Head, MD and I live in Central Texas now. Thank you! To the 150+ thumbs down....they must not know how much time and effort you put into helping others. Again, thank you.
Super job! Love how fast you go! You don't spend a lot of time talking about stuff we don't need. You go right into topic tell it and move on. I can always go back and listen again. Love it. Thanks!!
Thank you for not leaving out the "easy" steps, assuming we know them. We have so much on our minds right now that your clarity and tips are immensely helpful! Thank you! I will be watching everyone of your helps!
A big thank you from a primary teacher from Romania, to you, Michelle! I have learn so much with your help. God bless you! I love your positive way of speaking and explaining things! Big hug!
I am a kindergarten teacher where we have two usually working desktop computers and one usually not working desktop computer. Tossed into this new arena I was lost. I have purchased some of your Tpt products (totally awesome) and so your name caught my eye. You are a life saver and you had me hooked on my first video of yours! You're like my google classroom kindergarten teacher and I'm the kindergarten student (I'll hero worship you forever). Thank you for all you do and sharing that information!
I'm a newbie to Google classroom and I have been watching your tutorials. With all the chaos that accompanies a new school year+pandemic, your tutorials have been extremely helpful. You are so knowledgeable. Thank you!
Thanks for your useful tips. I'm using Google Classroom for the first time due to the school closure and have learnt so much from watching your videos. I especially love knowing how to create my worksheets such that my students can work independently.
I just made my first Google Slide and submitted it at TpT. Your step-by-step explanation made it soooooo easy. I've made hundreds of PowerPoint slideshows and taught more kids to make their own than I could count, but now it is time to evolve as Google is taking over the planet. Thanks for the help! I love your videos.
Michelle this is my first year-not in the field of education -but as a certified middle school teacher, and I am excited and apprehensive at the same time. I WANT to learn how to effectively teach digital content to my students, and am willing to follow your tips and ideas, until I get accustomed to teaching online. I appreciate all of your videos and support, and please continue helping educators like me, to overcome our fear of teaching in a world of "new normal"- teaching online. C. H. South. Georgia School Teacher.
I'm a high school teacher and I teach computer science and IT in a computer room. This is exactly what I do with all of my worksheets. Everything is done on Google Classroom so I can see how much students have completed and it's easy to mark. If you just have them upload Word or PowerPoint files, that's great, but you can't see anything until they put it there. When you have them working in Classroom on a document template you've given them, you can see how much work they have (or haven't) completed even if they don't hand it in. Other things you can do with this is "drag and drop" type of activities. You just make a background image like in the video, and then put your pictures or boxes with labels and allow students to categorize things by placing them into the right square on the screen. You can easily do the same thing with fill in the blanks -- either by giving words in draggable boxes or by putting in text-boxes to type in. It's soooo much better than doing paper worksheets.
I have seen several digital webinars and videos lately, as have we all, to transition into digital learning. Your videos have been by the far the most user friendly and most understandable that I have seen. Thank you for making it so easy that those of us who do not speak computer are able to navigate through with ease!
OMG!!!! Where have you been all my teaching life? Or at least the last month! These are amazing! Simple, easy to follow and clear, to the point. I have already watched 4 of your videos today. You must be a fantastic teacher. Thank-you! - Marci Arrigo - SpEd Teacher in MN
Seriously! I an watching all of these google classroom videos! It is helping me which is helping my students. Thank you!! Virtual Learning is such a challenge and coming here helps! Thank you!!!
Hey! Hey! I did it! I had to watch it over and over again. I wanted to go step by step with your guidance until I was able to complete it all by myself! Thank you Michelle!
You are amazing!! First year teacher freaking out with virtual teaching. Your videos are a life line right now for me. Thanks for sharing your talent with us!!
I am in LOVE with you right now! I have been wanting a way to make some assignments (organizers) for my grade 3s and have tried so many terrible ways to do it! I have ended up with kids writing all over a doc and erasing my original questions or even my original!!! Thank you so much for this!! Game changer for online learning with littles!!
I have been following you for some time and you are my go to when I get stuck with Google Classroom (which is often). Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge with us, especially this digital immigrant💜

Thanks so much! This vocabulary organizer is just like the one I use when I am face-to-face with my students. This will be a fabulous resource for our remote learning.
I should have watched Michelle's video BEFORE I posted a google doc allowing all 120 students to edit one document! It was MESSY!!! Thank you, Michelle, for teaching me how to do it right!
Thank you so much! Your video helped a group of First Grade teacher's figure out how we can adapt your template to allow our students to complete their Science PBL presentations!! You Rock!❤️❤️❤️

Over the past few days, I have looked at so many videos. Yours are by far ahead of the pack. Thank you for your dedication and hard work. You are truly a superstar and have made my learning so much easier!
Kia ora from Aotearoa / New Zealand! Just wanted to share that what I love about your tutorial videos is that you are empowering others to create their own templates and organise their online teaching and learning opportunities in a way that is unique to their language, setting and audience. Thank you so much. I am learning every day!!! :D Noho Haumaru - Stay Safe!
I really enjoyed your energy, especially as I'm so frustrated now with remote learning and the work it entails. You make it seem so easy! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and I can't wait to watch all your videos! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for making these tutorials. I just finished watching your response to going back to school before I watched this one. I can only say thanks for giving so much of yourself to the rest of us who don't get what we need as far as technology PD in our own districts.
Once again an amazing job! I like the speed of your instruction. It's too fast but that keeps it from being boring. I can watch it once, then go back and review it again. Our team of teachers are so thankful for you during this COVID 19 online learning immersion.
I've been watching your videos the past few days as we are preparing (just started today) for our Distance Learning Synchronous Plan. Your videos have been very helpful. Thank you!
Thank you so much!!! This distance learning has been challenging. It is nice to find a great tutorial video that isn't annoying. Your school is lucky to have you!!!
Thank you soooo much!! I will try to create one myself to practice this setup. I will also download the one you shared! 🤗 I am new to all things Google in the classroom so I truly appreciate this!!

Especially trying to figure out quickly how students can add worksheets to their document over all the extended online learning taking place over the past few weeks and will continue! Thank you!
I loved your step by step video! I made my own graphic organizer stopping your video at each step!! This will be helpful as we move to remove learning with our students. Thank you very much!!
I am loving your lessons. It has helped me in ways I could never explain. I look forward to more of your videos. Thanks for taking the time. You have saved my virtual career!!!
Michelle you are the best, Love your enthusiasm and your instructions are impeccable. You saved my life as I maneuver the remote leaning protocol. Do have a question on how do students save the worksheet properly? Thanks again
As an old teacher who was once excited to get push-button phones in the classroom and taught in the "chalk era", these videos are enormously helpful. Thank you, thanks, thank you!!!!
Thank you for this. I am a beginner of google classroom I followed all the steps and I did it and definitely I will watch your other video about google classroom because I want to learn more how to use it
Oh my gosh, I think I love you!!! I've been wanting to create this kind of stuff, but I had no clue how. So clear and detailed and OCDish, just like me. I'm so glad I have found these videos.
This is a life saver!f Thank you for taking it step by step and being so clear with the directions. Distance learning is a challenge and this is helping me a lot!

How do the students move things around or fill in a blank? My student presentations go automatically to "present" mode.
