Commenting on Google Docs
In order to comment on a student's Google doc, the student must first share their document with you. (Learn more about sharing in my post on Making a Google Docs Template.)
Once you access a student's document you can insert a comment wherever your cursor appears. If you select a block of text, a highlight will appear around the selected words, indicating a comment.
- Select text or place cursor where you want the comment
- Go to Insert > Comment
- Write your comment and press the blue Comment button
- Reply to other comments (or your own comment) by typing in the box below the comment and pressing reply.

Some of these directions were pulled from the Google Support Site.
