A piece of advice for anyone with MORE than 9 folders: instead of putting the number "1" write it as "01". Google goes by the first numeral, so "10" will end up BEFORE "2" unless you make it "02." Had a very aggravating 20 minutes 3 years ago until I figured this out...,🤦🏽‍♀️

Yes! I forgot to add that in there. Personally, I always keep my "broad" categories to under 10 because I keep my "teaching" files and "personal" files in separate Google Drive. But you definitely may need to use this if you keep all your files in one place and have many different categories!

@@PocketfulofPrimary haha. I've had a few years of figuring this out. Our district uses the G-suite as everything so the kids all have Google accts via our school network and we are a 1 to 1 district with ipads. We've gotten very good with the ins and outs of this stuff. Which means my drive is a HOT MESS right now. Time to do some digital Kon Mari...because #teachersarehoarders and #digitalhoarding is the worst ...

That hurts my brain

This made my teacher heart smile. Thank you so much for this video. So many great tips and tricks

I am so excited to learn from you! Education is a door that someone opens up for you. Inside is a vast room with tons of possibilities that you didn't even know existed. Then the learner takes off on their own and creates according to their own world. Thank you for your inspiration!

I appreciate your hard work in creating ALL of these videos! You make technology so approachable and easy to use!

Thank you for this video! My Drive was a mess and whenever I opened it I'd cringe!! With some of your tips, I've been able to tame the beast! Thanks again!

I’m a student teacher in the UK and watching your vlogs and videos gives me so much inspiration for when I get my own classroom. I love the way you say it how teaching is and don’t try and sugar coat it.

I love this series of videos!! My dad who was an E coach and I are smiling ear to ear with your content. Google drive is a MUST for any teacher!! I use it to keep myself organized. It's great to keep that work/life balance!!

This is part of my summer project-to get organized. I never knew that I could change the colors of the folders!

Thanks so much Michelle! Your videos are done so well. Even though they started off great, I see so many new video tricks and new content compared to your older videos. Thanks for modeling growth-mindset and entrepreneurship for myself and other humans.

You have no idea how helpful that was! :) I'm a double majoring college student (Education & Spanish) who works 30+, and I am starting my own business. My drive was becoming a real mess and I had no idea how to organize it. This was such an easy video to follow and before I even had any questions you had them answered!

Thank you so much Michelle for all of your videos, they have helped me become more familiar and comfortable with using every technology tour I need to start student teaching because I’ve only been a substitute teacher up until now I’m finishing my masters degree and I’m very grateful for your videos! Keep up the great work!

I wish all of this was around 28 years ago when I started teaching! This would have made so many tasks almost mindless. Thank you! Us veteran teachers can learn so much from you newer teachers also. We are not always tech savvy like younger people. I watched your new teacher supplies post and got so many great tips. Keep doing what you are doing! I will take your ideas into my last two years in the classroom.

I am so glad I found you. I am not addicted to learning about technology thanks to your easy to follow and well organized presentations. You are awesome!

I love this series. I’m a preschool teacher and director that has not stayed up with technology over years. This type of video is so helpful to someone like me that went to college before technology became so vital in the classroom. Thank you for the step by step instruction. ❤️

Thank you SO much for explaining this in simple terms. I loved how you made it a point to indicate every single click and button. You are a great teacher.

ok so finally someone who is the whole package doing a tutorial. I love your energy, your articulation and your knowledge base. I am older and Tech stuff does not come natural, yet I dont need to be spoon fed and have things repeated multiple times either. You do such a great job on camera and I look forward to listening to more of your stuff! Thank you!

This was so helpful! For whatever reason I've always had the hardest time figuring out the folders and files biz, thank you! :)

I love Google Drive too. I felt very satisfied that I knew most of this already. The numbering, colors, and stars are details I'd overlooked though. Thanks for the info!

It's the best feeling to open my drive after organizing four years worth of stuff! My take away, everything has a place now! Thanks so much for your great videos!

ummmm... so you are wonderful. truly appreciate your simple straightforward support. sometime i watch your video just to support what i already know. keeps me feeling confident and inspired.

I just started using Google Drive for assignments, etc. So glad that you explain this portion of it clearly. Now...time to get organized!

Now that I'm teaching from home, I have time to organize my Drive. Thanks for being clear, concise, and specific!

I always enjoy watching your videos and I always learn something from them. However, this one blew me away and so simple. It was perfect to what I needed most and was such a great help! I had avoided going into my drive because it was such a hot mess. In less than an hour's time, I cleaned it up and now I am no longer frustrated with trying to find anything I need! Thank you!

YASSSSSS. When I saw this video title pop up I yelled "hellllll yessssss" out loud. Great content.

Your videos have been life savers for me. Now that we are teaching from home, I have been binge watching your videos and practicing. I definitely need to clean up my Google Drive.. I am the older teacher who hates to constantly be asking for tech help (but I do). This is a great help for me. I will share your link with my fellow teachers. They may have already found you. Keep up the great work and stay safe.

I would be LOST without Michelle! I am so low tech and she has made the start up of this remote instruction year so much better! SHE ROCKS and I've told everyone about her! They love it too!

Oh, wow, this was so helpful for me as I'm getting used to the Google Classroom!!

This was so helpful. I am a reformed mess. Although organization doesn't come naturally to me, I do strive toward organization. I recognize the peace and ease it brings to my life. I married a very organized man 18 years ago and I have been adopting his ways ever since. I am an example of organization being able to be taught. I really appreciate your tips and how concise your lesson was presented. Thank you so much.

I am absolutely obsessed with having my Google Drive organized. I had a student teaching intern this year and by the end of the year, his drive was organized by units/themes. Organization is key for me functioning as a teacher! ha

This is an awesome video, I really love the colour coordination and the simple folder structure used here. At times it can be difficult to remain focused, and to setup a file system which is optimal and efficient that we lose the idea of simplicity. Thanks for bringing me back down to earth! lol

You are amazing, Michelle! I’ve been following you for a while and enjoy all your tips, tricks, stories and recommendations. My school & I have ordered so many of your Amazon favorites. My team and I have recently switched to using Google Drive and we find it so much easier to keep things organized. That being said, I’ve learned so much more from just this video alone! Thank you for your inspiration and for sharing your expertise and positive motivational energy with us! Cheers from Japan! 🐶🙋🏻‍♀️🇯🇵✨

I love this series!!!! I’m so excited every Sunday waiting for you r video! ❤️❤️❤️

Greatly useful and fast video of clear and brilliant guidance with general jsutifications to answer our natural Why-Questions in mind , at every turn of the topic !

Love, Love, Love ! This was excellent. Clear, concise and just what I needed. Thank You!!!

Michelle, you’re a star! Thanks for this! It’s so clear and concise!

I love your energy!!! I love how you've color coded your folders, & love how you explain everything so clearly & how hard you work to be the best teacher, & professional! 🙏🏼💖

I'm starting my B.Ed in the Fall, and this video will help me SO much then!! Honestly, I wasn't the most organized student during my undergrad, mostly because I didn't find a system that worked for me. Going to try this out!! Thanks!

You are amazing. Very teacher friendly and so easy to follow. I am organizing my Google Drive as I am typing this. I am in the process of watching all your Ed Tech videos. Thank you so much!!!!

I love how specific these videos are!Also congrats on 200k I'm so proud of you!

Your hair is so pretty!! Can you do an updated get ready with me video?

Please keep these types of videos coming! So useful!

Thank you - this was so helpful! I love all of your videos- they really are a public service for teachers!

I just started to use google drive to organize my business docs. Thank you for all the cool tips. Love the colors of the folders :-)

I wish you had made this video back in September. My new school uses Google drive and classroom for everything and I was and still am clueless when it comes to Google Drive. You made this so easy to understand that I am now going to attempt to organize a year's worth of files. I can't wait for the Google classroom video. Thank you soooo much!

I think you're an awesome teacher for fourth grade I have been watching you as of late and I think you're a wonderful teacher congratulations on your job

You are such a breath of fresh air! So 'clued up' too! YOur youtube vids are my 'go to' for everything regarding my workspace (although I haven't quite mastered that yet!) but my google slides, you name it...you're knowledge and skills are excellent! Thank you! Nga mihi!

You are so inspiring Michelle! I love all of your vlogs..more vids please.. thank you and more power!

I love you Michelle, you make my teacher’s life easier!

Only stumbled across your channel tonight and it's awesome. Picking up some great tips for my classroom. Thank you! Watching all the way down here in New Zealand. 🇳🇿

What a gift you have! Loved watching this!

In 5 weeks of teaching and using Google Drive for the first time, I have a lot of "stuff." This video is simple, to the point with great tips to help anyway get and stay organized. Highly recommended.

❤❤ your explanation and demonstration is top notch.

My District just started using Google Drive more regularly. Your video was super helpful and easy to understand. I can't wait to set up my folders!

I'm so glad I found this! My Drive is a hot mess....time to get started organizing! Thank you!!!! :)

You are fabulous! Thank you for all of your help!

So helpful and clear - your students are lucky to have you!

I love all of your videos! thanks for all of the great tips. You are a fantastic resource for me. thank you!

This is excellent! Thank you!! You're an awesome teacher :) Super helpful! I'm going to watch more of your videos

Thank you so much. I am not a teacher, but I work alone, have no staff, and have tons of information to organize. You are a really good teacher!!!!

You have made my life so much easier. You're great.

This was one of the most helpful videos on the whole entire internet. Thank you so much. I love Google Drive, but I was DROWNING in files, and folders, and more folders,😵 and I just needed a basic plan and explanation to help me get everything organized. Thank you so much for this!!!😁

More great tips! Thank you, Michelle. I'm even getting into the ROYGBIV thing - I might be growing positive pants under my clothes!

Michelle, nice clean video. Organized just like your Google Drive. Great job in both areas, thank you so much.

Another idea that is a game changer and very helpful. I set my folders up to and created folders based on grades along with subdirectories for subjects. My icloud storage is a hot mess and is now sorted in google. This whole video has really helped me organize so many documents. My next goal is to start scanning and uploading documents. I have papers all over the place and it is annoying. Something calming and beautiful about being able to find everything at first glance.

Thank you. I use Google Drive everyday and just learned some new things.

Thank you for sharing this video and your expertise on organising folders. I have learn so much. Your animation is perfect and very inspiring.

This is a great help for me personally and as a teacher as well. Thank you!

I love this series! Do you plan on sharing a video on how you became so graphic design savvy? You really get me so excited to teach on days when I'm struggling. Thanks!

Very happy you made this video. This is on my to-do list for this summer.

Thanks for the tips! My goal is to use google classroom next year, so getting my google drive cleaned out and organized better is a must. I would like to learn how you make google slides, and how you make worksheets and notes for your students. You always seem to create them so easily and quickly.

Fantastic vid....you are a natural teacher girl!!!

Thank you for all these excellent tips. Perfect timing as more online teaching during pandemic.

Thank you for this video! I made folders for my drive a long time ago but I need to organize everything into them. This is my new goal for the summer because next school year will be my third year teaching and I’ll be the lead teacher for my grade level 😬 so I will need to be as organized as possible!!

Thank you so much for this easy to understand video about organizing Google Drive. It is so much easier for me to find files in they are in a logical place.

I am not a teacher and I love your videos! I do homeschool my son so I only have one student and still have trouble staying organized! (Though I have my daughter at home distance learning now too. I’m LOVING it!!) This will be a great way to organize my home, my businesses, and school! I’ve definitely been using my google drive wrong

Absolutely loving your channel. Glad to know I'm not the only organization freak out there! :)

Fabulous! Thank you! I use Google Drive all the time but love your approach to organizing them. I need to share multiple documents with a large group of people. I hope/trust this will work!

Organised my drive while watching the video. Loving the colours! Thankyou

I am an art teacher and this was also relevant to my very disorganized drive. THANK YOU!!

Hey Michelle! your video helped me to organize my files in my google drive, Thank you so much.
