Your 7th and 8th grade students have access to a great composing program called "Noteflight."  The school has bought a subscription for your student to use.  I can access what they are writing and not only see it but hear it too.  Please allow your student to compose using this free program for them.  The link is in the post below.  Your student just puts in their first and last name with a space between.  Their first and last names need to be capitalized.  Many of them have changed their individual passwords.  They know what the general school password is to put in.  If you have any questions or concerns - let me know!
