I LOVE LOVE LOVE wordle! I just selected the text for the introduction for chapter 2 in my Algebra 2 book, and had wordle create a word cloud of the text. I am going to do this for every chapter, print and laminate them and post them in my classroom. What a great way to get a glimpse of what the chapter is about before we dig into it.
Now that we have "finished" these challenges, could you talk the powers that be into giving us about a day of work time for each of these challenges to just explore? You two work on that for us.... haha
Thanks for all of your hard work. I can't wait to take some time to delve further into some of these sites...

Thanks, Bridget! I'm glad you found some useful things.
ReplyDeleteLet's not hold our breath about that day off... :)
I think it would be fun, though, to do an after school thing in the lab with whomever is interested in playing around with this stuff. Like from 3-3:45 sometime. Think anyone would come?
You would get a few to come I think. I am still having trouble with itunes and I can't get a screen capture to appear in my blog, but I could probably read about it in earlier tasks. (But it would be easier to just ask you.)
