Do You Wordle?

                                               wordle.net

Yesterday we used wordle to create a character analysis of some of the friends we met in our global read-aloud text. The students loved watching the whiteboard as I typed their descriptions into the program. We sorted and rearranged our words until we found a poster combination we liked and then added it to our read-aloud portfolio.

Several students plan to use the site to create covers for their writing journals.  I suggested it also makes a great tool to practice the weekly spelling words.  Ask your son/daughter to go online and wordle with you.

Have you wordled today?
