Taks 2, Job 1 Wordle
Fun, fun, fun! Look what I made from a paragraph about the water cycle using Wordle. Nearly everyday in 5th grade science I ask my students to write to explain something, such as the water cycle. This reinforces sequence, vocabulary and concepts. How much more meaningful would this writing be if they thought they could take their paragraph to the computer lab and use this tool to create a work of art? I can see that this might even be a category in the annual art contest. I loved the omit right click option so I could get rid of words like "the." I can see this being used in every class, and even just for fun. Another bonus is that it is soooo easy to use that even a teacher like myself could teach it without extensive training.
