Not sure where to start? Step-by-step guide
- Laptop 1 opens a private browser window and goes to accounts.google.com.
- Choose to create a new account for personal use.
- Laptop 2 gives the made-up first and last name.
- Type the made-up birth date (adult) and gender from the trainer card.
- Laptop 2 suggests the Gmail address. If it is taken, add a number.
- Laptop 2 reads the password from the trainer's paper card. Type it twice.
- If Google asks for a phone number, laptop 4's volunteer types theirs and reads out the code.
- If Google refuses or blocks you, stop. The trainer switches to the spare account.
- Skip the optional extras if Google allows it, then agree to the terms.

What is on my Google Calendar today?
- When the bot shows a connect card, click it and sign in with the class account. Allow Calendar and Sheets.
