[CASL-L] Digital Map shading?

[Estevez, Celeste]

If the map is in Google drawing, then the kids can use the polyline tool to
draw and then the bucket to fill in areas over the map. The transparency
for each color can be customized. I've attached a quick example.

There are likely better tools for this but I am trying to be mindful of the
emphasis on the Google suite and the number of Chromebooks being used by
students.
