Already Thinking of Next Year
Last week, one sunflower left a comment on my post about how she was making a lot of photo collages lately. I've never made one and it sounded cool. Since I can't seem to get next year off my mind yet, I decided to play with word clouds and photo collages in Picasa. I might use them in a PLC next year to encourage teachers to dip into the Common Core Standards. More than anything, it was fun for me to play around and begin to figure out how to do things.
Playing with Word Clouds
I've been experimenting with a word cloud generator called Tagxedo. Below is a word cloud I created using words from the kindergarten writing section of the common core standards. Taxedo makes inserting large images into your blog a snap. Knowing the size to choose takes some testing. It does require that you download software to your computer. I wanted to play with the images to see if the big ideas in the standards appeared more identifiable. What do you think?
