Show Shirt Ordering Made Easy

When ever I do my Ed Tech workshops for teachers, I call this my 5 dollar ed tech tip.  Google Forms are  life savers.  Google Forms are always linked to a Google  Spreadsheet.  All the information entered into the Google Form will appear in the Google Spreadsheet.

I am starting my 18th year of teaching, which means I have overseen the ordering of over 50 different show shirts in my career.  Life became easier once I started using Google Forms, no more lost sheets of paper.  I simple copy the embed code or if your website is a Google Site just click insert and show shirt available to order.



You can also add more questions, if you needed to do an order for dance shoes and/or  make-up kits.

Another use for Google Forms creating a contact list for you productions.

You can also customize your confirmation message.  For this, one I reminded them the day the money was due.

Here is  links that can help you learn how to use forms.
