I am excited for this school year.  Several things have popped out for me that I can’t wait to use in my classroom.  One of which is all of the editing tools kids can use to enhance their writing.  I especially liked where students could take a snapshot of their work to add to a document.  The drawing tool can take kids forever to navigate, especially the perfectionists.  When the kids can create their plan on a piece of paper, take a snapshot and then add it to the begginning of a Google Doc they are writing in is great. Also, I love the idea of adding the students pictures to their writing.  All authors have their pictures taken and put on the back of their books, why not our kids too!
