We all have lessons where we want students to annotate a drawing, labeling parts of a cell, naming the states, whatever. You can do that in slides, but what if that is part of a larger assignment that involves typing? All you have to do is insert a drawing, put the picture in and have the students annotate it.

The video below shows how to do this, but I will walk you through it step by step.

* In your google doc go to insert, choose drawing and new drawing

* Paste the picture that you want the students to annotate adding any instructions with a text box.

* Save & close the drawing (The drawing will insert into your google doc where your cursor was when you went to insert in step 1)

* Instruct the students to double click the picture to annotate.
