Did you know that Microsoft Word offers two features which can be very helpful in editing and commenting on student writing?  

You can use MS Word to insert comments to specific areas within a student's writing without making any changes to his document.  You can, also, make changes to the student's paper which are then underlined and colored red. Students can then review the changes you’ve made and either accept, reject, or revise.

Just follow the directions in Word Tip.
