You should save everything on Google Drive!

 

Follow these steps to back up all of your work on Google Drive in addition to saving everything on your flash drive (a Google Drive is like having a magical flash drive inside the internet).

 

a) You must have a gmail account to do this: if you don’t have one, go to google and type in “gmail”, click on the first website that pops up. Click on “create an account” at the bottom of the page. Don't forget to make your email address professional and apropriate. 

 

b) Once you have created an account, look to the top right hand corner of your screen: there is a picture of 9 tiny black boxes. Click on those tiny black boxes and a list of icons will appear.

 

c) Click on the one called “Drive” in the middle of the bottom row

 

d) On the new page you will see a red box on the top left hand side with a white arrow inside pointing up: click on that arrow (this means “upload”)

 

e) When the new screen pops up, go to your flash drive and choose the document you want to back up and save to your google drive. Then you’re done!
