Wordle

Another way to get my students engaged with their writing is to transform their finished product into a Wordle “word cloud.” Wordle was created by Jonathan Feinberg and is a fun way to visualize, or make a printable image of a document the student has created. Often, for my students, the idea of pride in a sense of completing a task is not sufficient enough incentive for them to do so. I anticipate using Wordle as a fun incentive for the students once they finish a task. Wordles can be printed out and put up on the wall, also the students can edit how the Wordle looks. Here is a link to a Wordle I created from the text of this post.
