Have you tried Wordle?


I am hooked on Wordle! My teaching colleague, Kathy, introduced it to me and it is the neatest thing and can be so personable. It is also very simple to use and figure out. Go to the site, type a variety of words about a certain subject or person. My writing students used it to make Christmas presents for their families. They brainstormed words that described someone special to them and typed it in. When we printed them out and put a nice piece of cardstock behind it, it makes a wonderful keepsake. This year we actually used Wordle to create our Christmas cards. Give it a try. It is so much fun! Thank you, Kathy!
