Tagxedo Fun and Useful


Using Tagxedo was as easy as Meghan mentioned. Thanks for the good find! I just added the url from my blog and then picked some of the options available. Notice how the top two apples have the same information but the words pop depending on the choices you make. I would like to use this for the vocabulary from The Diary of Anne Frank and it will also be great for my struggling students who are studying the countries in Africa. Perhaps we will try to add the information from each country and use the shape of the country as the theme. The motivation level will increase for those who have a difficult time with learning so many facts.  Another idea might be to have the students list their personal interests, qualities and family names. It may be a nice "gift" for themselves or even something for Mother's or Father's Day.   Does anyone else have any other ideas?
