Word fun with Wordle.net

November 11, 2009 at 2:53 pm | In Uncategorized | 14 Comments

Today our fifth grade students headed into the computer lab for some work with synyoymn.  The students used the theasuarus in MicrosoftWord to create a list of synonyms for tired words.  We wanted to find new words to replace words like: said, happy, fun,sad, big, tall, etc.  Here is a sampling of our work!

  7. Wow! that is great! I found another way to do a word cloud on wordle! it said that it is advanced but it is really easier! The to box is the one you want to do. You just type in the word you want and then you do a : and the number of how many time you want it in there!
    Sydney!
