Classroom Displays « Ideas For Teachers

As you may have noticed I am quite a fan of the wordle site, and the ways of which it can be incorporated into the classroom. Recently, I was contacted by the creator of another word cloud site to trial their version. The site is called Tagxedo , and whilst similar to Wordle in some aspects, it takes word clouds to a whole new level. With Tagxedo, the creator can now select a shape or word to help form the word cloud.

Managing our charts & some customizable charts!

Happy Saturday!! Last night, I shared some anchor charts I had made to replace my oh-so-blah handwriting (which you'll get to see further down this post--woohoo!). I wanted to share a bit more this evening about how I am managing the charts (since this is still relatively new to me). I think I've mentioned a couple of times that we are following America's Choice for Reader's and Writer's Workshop. There are charts, charts, and more charts with each lesson. I have no problem with charts and I think they're great for my newcomer ELL's....BUT...they are so cluttering!!! http://ladybugsteacherfiles.blogspot.com/2011/11/managing-our-charts-customizable-charts.html
