Hi Everyone -
I've checked in with Julie who started this googlegroup for us - we both are unable to figure out how to be able to post photos and files on it.  I've suggested that we switch over to a yahoo group, since I know how to set that up and it would be more user-friendly.  You may have to sign up for a yahoo account in order to join (I'm not completely sure that you have to), though you can still receive emails from the yahoo group at your regular email address.  Signing up for a yahoo account is free and very quick. 
Would you kindly reply and let me know if you are ok with switching over to the yahoo group?  We'd really like everyone to participate - this can be so helpful during the school year!
Thank you,
Giulie Garland

Aloha Guilie,
It's fine with me to switch to Yahoo. Thank you for your efforts.

Do you know have to access Jennifer Yates' materials from this summer?
Thanks,
Richard

Hi Richard - Jennifer's stuff is on the moodle website from the college under "Rhythmic Work".  This is the kind of stuff that I want to transfer to our yahoo group so we can all get to it easily.
Thanks for replying quickly!

Changes to Welcome Message, Pages and Files in Google Groups

Google Groups no longer supports customized welcome messages, pages or files. We made this decision so that we can focus on improving the core functionalities of Google Groups -- mailing lists and forum discussions. Instead of these features, we encourage you to use products that are designed specifically for file storage and page creation, such as Google Docs and Google Sites.

For example, you can easily create pages on Google Sites and share the site new window with the members of your group. You can also store your files on the site byattaching files to pages new window on the site. If you’re just looking for a place to upload your files so that your group members can download them, we suggest you try Google Docs. You can upload files new window and share access with either a group new window or share access with an individual new window, assigning either edit- or download-only access to the files.

If you currently have pages or files in your group, you can export all your pages and files in a zip file. You will be able to download your pages and files until August 31, 2011 by visiting your group home page (https://groups.google.com/group/yourgroupname) and clicking on Download Pages or Download Files. After this, we will remove the feature permanently.

Thanks for using Google Groups.


One possibility.  If you decide to stick with google. 

Thanks for you efforts.

A switch is preferred if we can keep files there. Thank you for all of your efforts and organization. It is sure to pay off during the year.

Best,
Mollie

Yes, a yahoo group would be fine for me, but I tried to join using my google id to keep things simpler, plus did not want a bunch of yahoo junkmail , but not sure it worked.

Could you leave the moodle things where they are and just copy them into the yahoo, rather than move them?

I will assume that the yahoo group will not expire when school starts. Correct?

Hi Charlene - The moodle stuff will still be there - I'll just put copies on our yahoo group site.  The group will not expire - we'll keep it going all year and hopefully continue it into 2nd grade and beyond.
Thanks!
