New Tool

Last Friday we started one of our Mother's Day gifts for the special lady in our lives. We used Wordle (www.wordle.net) which is a great, free tool!~ According to their website, "Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide." The words that appear more frequently in the text, show up bigger in the word cloud. Students then customized their word cloud with different fonts, layouts, and colors. We printed them out and are turning them into some awesome hanging pictures, but you can also save them to the Wordle gallery to share with
your friends. Check out some of ours below:
