Wow what a great chrome extension. This looks like a great tool for all writers. I especially like the 'collect highlights' tool. Make sure you watch the accompanying video to see how it works.  Read&Write for Google Docs is a cool extension I found on Web App Reviews that can benefit ELLs and struggling readers. The extension provides you with a special toolbar on the top of your Google documents.

"Google released a new handy Chrome extension for both Mac and Windows users. This new add-on allows you to open files in your Google Drive directly into a compatible application that you have on your computer. Before, you had to download the file and then launch the appropriate app on your computer to open it and edit it and when you re done you had to save the edits and save it back to Google Drive. Now this process becomes pretty seamless using only a couple of clicks."

The Easy Portfolio Site Builder makes it a breeze to create a student portfolio using Google Sites. No longer will you need to spend hours adding and curating students portfolio content. This is the timesaver you have been waiting for. Once authorised the script will turn all content located inside of a designated folder on your Google Drive into a new Google Site. The app will monitor your Google Drive for changes and reflect these immediately on the Google Site.
