Tagxedo

Here is my word cloud that I made using tagxedo. This is a fun and creative site that can be used in the class room for elementary students. With this site, I would encourage my students to use their creative minds in writing poetry. For example this image of a rose could be expressed differently for each student. I would have them create a word cloud, and then write a poem that describes what they felt when creating the image.

FUN WITH GLOGSTER

Here is the link to my glogster post.

Students will have fun creating a page that tells a story about their hobbies, or interests. In the class room, the teacher can have each student present this to show their creativity. This is also a good ice breaker for the beginning of the semester, when the students are introducing themselves.
