How do I insert an emoji?
To insert an emoji from the Toolbar simply go to Insert-Emoji. Or, you may add the @ symbol and type in a descriptor, and emoji suggestions will auto-populate.
Why would you use emojis in Google Docs?
There are many reasons why educators and students may want to add emojis to their Google Docs.
Here are some ideas:

Inserting emojis instead of bullets is a fun and colorful way to spice up student assignments and materials. Tip: You can copy and paste the emojis so you do not have to revisit the toolbar.

While revising and editing text, users may also insert emojis for reactions! Simply highlight the text and you will now be able to insert an emoji reaction.
Once a user adds a reaction, you will see the emoji and the number of reactions received.
