To learn more about using some of these features, make sure to watch the video at the top of this page where I show how to use the extensions described in this post. You can use the extension to create vocabulary lists and worksheets for an online passage or article. Also, it can read the text from almost any site aloud to students.īut, this Chrome extension does not just help students. The extension provides many tools to help students with reading comprehension such as highlighters, a written dictionary, and a picture dictionary.

Read and Write has quickly become one of my favorite Google Chrome extensions for students. With Grammarly, you can write confidently, knowing that your content is error-free and easy to read. With this extension, students have no excuse for making spelling errors and other minor mistakes when writing. I have also used it when writing emails and typing in open forms online. Not only have I used this extension with Google apps such as Docs, Slides, and Forms. Best of all, it works with almost any online site. Grammarly provides tools to help students check their spelling and basic grammatical errors. For example, when working in Google Docs, there are not a lot of advanced tools to help students review and edit their work. I love Google apps, but one of the few problems I have is that they don’t always provide great editing tools for writing. If your students are working remotely, there is a good chance they are using Google apps to complete many of their assignments. All of the ads, clickbait, and promotions disappear. The Chrome extension will open a new page with only the text, pictures, and videos that are part of the article. Mercury Reader makes online learning safer and less distracting by pulling all the ads away from an online article. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve found a great article on or National Geographic, only to have it be covered in distracting ads. The problem is a lot of that content is full of ads that distract from learning and may not always be appropriate for students. There is a lot of great, educational content online.
