Poetry & Spelling Practice

Before you get started writing/typing your poetry, everyone must create a Poetry folder in Google Drive.  I want you to save and store all of your poetry in this folder.  Most of you have already created a Poetry folder on your personal H: drive, however, you will need another Poetry folder in Google Drive.
