Each summer I spend time reviewing the tools that I use in my classroom and that I recommend to teachers like you.

Today I'd like to share my favorite apps, add-ons, and extensions for the ELA classroom. 

This collection of tools will help your students become better readers and writers and will also help you provide better support and feedback on their written work. 

Here's a quick list of the tools I review in this episode: 

• Boom Writer (web app)
• Hemingway Editor (web app)
• Cite this for me (Chrome Extension)
• Grammarly (Chrome extension)
• NewsELA (web app)
• Dogo News (web app)
• Google Dictionary (Chrome extension)
• Immersive Reader (Chrome extension)
• Read and Write for Google (Chrome extension)
• Highlight Tool (Add on for Docs)
• Page Marker (Chrome Extension)
• Mote (Chrome Extension)
• e-Comments (Chrome Extension)

This is the gear that I use to record this podcast, produce videos for my YouTube channel, and the gear that I travel with when I visit schools and speak at conferences. 

Hopefully, you'll discover something that will make your life a bit easier and help you prepare for the challenges of remote and blended learning.
