Welcome to the second part of a four-part lesson on publishing Google Charts. This lesson focuses on the publication of charts using Google Docs.
In the previous lesson, we learned how to publish charts with Google Sheets. We published a Chart by itself. We also published charts and tables in a dashboard format.
In this lesson, you will create an assignment document for geometry assignments. The assignment document uses the geometry images created in other lessons. The images are free and available from my Teacher Pay Teacher storefront.
Matching assignments are useful as a formative or summative assessment. They assess student knowledge with support from possible answer choices. I use them when assessing basic concepts. They are particularly useful when assessing vocabulary and reading skills.
Students love word search puzzles. I like them because they are a fun way to reinforce vocabulary skills. I used them for spelling, sentence completion, and definitions. I thought it would be great to demonstrate how to create some crossword puzzles using Google Sheets and Google Docs. The lesson includes a copy of the completed product. Once you create a couple you will find they aren’t that hard to create.
In this lesson, we create a multiple-choice assignment with google docs. This is a wonderful way to add interactivity to assignments. Create the assignment and use it as a template for future assignments. Use it for review and assessments. There are some extra tips I use with this assignment.
This lesson creates a fill in the blank exercise without using tables. We use the equation editor to make the process easier. Create the assignment and distribute it to students using Google Classroom. Use the same document for review and assessment.
Fill in the blank exercises are useful for younger students. They are helpful when learning new vocabulary. I like using fill in the blank, or Cloze sentences with students. In this lesson, we are using Google Docs and Google Sheets. Google Sheets is useful when creating the table to separate the vocabulary.
Google provides an easy way to download a copy of a document for Microsoft Word. The same is true for Sheets and Slides. Those that are new to Google aren't familiar with the process. This process does not require them to export their document. Google Drive will do all the work for them and you.
Document templates are useful. They minimize the amount of work we need to do on a document. They have elements in place. These elements include page size, headers, footers, and page numbers. Templates in a work environment are essential. These templates usually come in the form of letterheads or reports. The method I'll describe here is easy to make and access. I hope you find it useful.
Paragraph styles allow us to quickly and easily update all the text in our document. Paragraph styles are commonly used in publication software.
