Tech Tools #2

The second tech tool I used was Wordle.  My sixth grade son is studying Classification in Science and has an upcoming quiz.  I thought studying with a Wordle might be more fun than memorizing from a traditional list.   The only problem I had was trying to save it and I actually had to download it and save it as an image.  However, I enjoyed creating the Wordle and changing the fonts and colors.



The Wordle was a success.  My son actually took it to school to show his friends his study guide.  I think it is a great tool to use for studying, visual displays of written information, and just for fun.  This year I might incorporate a Wordle into our family Christmas card - I think family and friends from near and far will enjoy reading it.
