Has anyone ever been to Wordle.net? (http://www.wordle.net/) It's a neat tool to make word clouds. I thought I would share it. You can put in your own words, pate the link of a web page that has an RSS feed, or enter a delicious user name to get their tags. Once your cloud is created, you can edit the style of it, such as the font color and type. They can be printed out or saved to Wordle. This could be a good activity to do with your class. You might use it for vocabulary words, key words to a chapter you are reading, or for review. It just seems like a fun alternative to regular class work. Check it out!

You may be able to see mine better at this link (

I used my blog address to make this one.
