Sending Your Lesson Plan or Curriculum Unit
to the Instructor as an Attached File

If you are not already familiar with using your e-mail software to send attached files, you may need to explore your e-mail software interface to locate the Attach File button or menu item. The Help files or User’s Manual will be useful if the location of the attached file button is not obvious.

Hint: A paperclip is often used as an icon for attached files. Some e-mail applications call attached files enclosures.

1. Open your e-mail application.
   
2. Click on the Compose Mail or New Message icon.
   
3. In the To: field, enter my e-mail address
   
4. In the Subject: field, type Project 2 Attached
   
5. In the body of the message type This message has a file attached. Identify your name, state, grade level or course and the specific elementary content standard that your project addresses. Indicate which application you used to create the project (Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, AppleWorks, Corel Word Perfect, Text Editor, HTML Editor, etc.)
   
6. Now, look for a button or a menu item labeled Attach or Attach File.
   
7. From the menu that opens when you selected Attach, navigate to the location on your computer where you saved your project.
   
8. Select the file you want to attach by clicking once on the file
   name and then click Open (Note: Your e-mail software may use OK or Attach in place of the word Open.)
   
9. The drive will operate a bit while the file is attached to your e-mail message.
   
10. Send the e-mail message and the attached file.

I will respond with a message indicating that I have received your project and will add it to the course project archives.
