Co:Writer and Snap&Read are now both available in one tool named Read&Write.
First Step
To get started, you will need to install Read&Write as an extension in Google Chrome. Head to the Chrome Web Store, ensure you
are signed-in under CPSGE (check the top-right corner), and then find the Read&Write Extension. For a shortcut, click here.
Co:Writer
Co:Writer Chrome Extension helps students write with proper grammar and spelling using topic-specific vocabulary.
Snap&Read
Snap&Read is a next-generation reading tool that can cover the most diverse reading needs. It simplifies vocabulary, translates text, reads inaccessible text (OCR), and captures and cites sources.
Students should follow the same process from their Chromebooks for adding these extensions.
In addition, in order to use PDF files with any of these extensions, please head to the following website:
