Chrome Extensions for Your Classroom

I learned and relearned about some useful Google Chrome Extensions last week at NCTIES Conference. Here are a few of my favorites.

Use the Crafty Cursor Extension to highlight the cursor to point out specific information on a website when projecting your screen.

Crafty Text Extension adds a text box on a website to point our a vocabulary word, share a class code or URL, etc. You can enlarge the text so your students can easily see the info. 

ScreenShade Extension lets you quickly and easily cover your screen, or a portion of it.

Here is a short demo video for these extensions. 


Sir Links-a-Lot is great for when you want to change up a Google product URL (for a force copy, preview, or template).


Having many Google Extensions enabled can slow your computer. If you're not using it regularly, disable it or get Extensity to help manage your extensions.

Happy Googling!
