This week I noticed I have no visitors to my page :( so I'm chosen to start commenting on the blogs I read.
Normally, I am an anonymous reader: reading and then passing on to the next post. But I thought if I gave more input on the post and signing it with my blog address, I could get more hits.
We'll have to see!
In other news, I read about something called Wordies on a peer's blog, and its cute!
Wordies are "word clouds" are a selection of individual words that are used to convey meaning or intent. See the above example of my blog as a Wordie.
I can see this as a great tool to introduce a unit of study. It can help students see the big picture and the important terms of the course. Its visual, spacial, and interesting to look at.
Lindsey,
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog. I'm looking for followers too, so come back and follow me! : ) You're right, it is amazing how even high schoolers like Brainpop. I like the Wordies - not sure how I am going to use it yet, but I am determined to find a way! Thanks for sharing.
