This Google Docs extension gives you the tools to really help EAL students and any student with a smaller vocabulary. The tools include:

• Low Frequency Word Highlighter - See which words are likely to be difficult

• Difficulty Guide (Pictured left) - This tool analyses the text in your doc and gives you a guide to reading time, difficulty and sentence complexity

• Low Frequency Table - This will add a table of low frequency words to your doc to enable you to add notes and for students to look them up in the dictionary.

• Create a Google Sheet of low frequency Words - This tool will enable you to add these words to your planning, pre-teach key vocabulary and give handouts.
