ReadWriteThink Printing Press
With ReadWriteThink's Printing Press students can create a booklet, flyer, brochure, or newspaper fairly easily. There is a nice guide that walks you through the process and the focus is on writing. There is a place within each publication for a picture, but not one that you can add from your computer. This space is reserved for students to draw a picture after printing.

ShowMe - The Online Learning Community
ShowMe - The Online Learning Community:
ShowMe is an open learning community where you can learn or teach any subject. Watch great lessons for free, or create your own. Create and record audio-annotated drawings. Fabulous for demonstrating long division, labeling the parts of a flower, teach a grammar lesson, etc. This is a also great tool for the flipped classroom!
