Google Docs is a word processing program that allows students to share their work with their teacher. The teacher is then allows to leave notes on the work, all virtual. This would be a great tool, especially if a student was needed help after school is over.

Class Dojo is a great way to keep parents involved, monitor students progress, and monitor their behavior.
Flipgrid would be a great tool for students to use to make discussion posts on a topic in the form of a video. That's my favorite use of this program.
This is a game designed to teach kids coding at a basic level. However, while the beginning levels are basic, it allows lots of opportunities to learn and practice harder coding levels, too.
This is a presentation program that is similar to prezi, which I also love. It's great to have multiple presentation options for the students to choose from.
A digital storytelling tool that allows students to create their own stories with pictures.
