"To see and use these templates, you must have a Google doc account and be logged on. Make a copy of each template to your Google Docs and begin using. I have used the templates with students as young as six, but they can be used for any purpose that is appropriate."
Revision is a critical piece of the writing process—and of your classroom curriculum. Now, Google Docs has partnered with Weekly Reader’s Writing for Teens magazine to help you teach it in a meaningful and practical way.
The sharing features of Google Docs enable you and your students to decide exactly who can access and edit documents. You’ll find that Google Docs helps promote group work and peer editing skills, and that it helps to fulfill the stated goal of The National Council of Teachers of English, which espouses writing as a process and encourages multiple revisions and peer editing.
On this page, you will find several reproducible PDF articles from Writing magazine filled with student-friendly tips and techniques for revision. You'll also find a teacher’s guide that provides you with ideas for how to use these materials with Google Docs to create innovative lesson plans about revision for your classroom.
Turn what people post on social media into compelling stories.
You collect the best photos, video, tweets and more to publish them as simple, beautiful stories that can be embedded anywhere.
"My StoryMaker lets you control characters and objects - and creates sentences for you! Once you are done with your story, you can print it out. You cannot go back and edit a story once you have ended it but, if you click "yes" when asked to share it with others, you can print it out again by entering the magic number it gives you in the box on the right. Since lack of space forces us to delete story files older than 1 month, please save the .pdf file that prints to your own computer."
Phrays (noun) A game in which each player tries to write a sentence best illustrating the meaning of the word of the day.
Each day, the sentence with the most user votes is the winner (or "phrays"). If multiple sentences have the same vote total, then the sentence to achieve that number of votes first wins. We created Phrays as a fun way to be creative with new words. Perhaps you'd like to write a phrays now?
