What & Why? Here is a list of the features that support students' literacy learning:

• Text to speech
• Embedded dictionary with visual icons
• Words Lists - Highlight vocabulary words and export the highlighted words to a vocabulary word list in a Google Doc, complete with icons and definitions, as well as a column for notes.
• Highlight - Highlight in up to four different colors and export highlighted text to a Google Doc for paraphrasing, commentary, and more.
• Mark and annotate PDFs

How Tos:
