I think Wordle is such an amusing site to use for children of all ages. Wordle is cloud of tagged words used to express or explain a certain subject area or idea. With my little ones in Kindergarten one unit that I thought about was our insect unit in the spring. By this time they have been to the computer lab for several weeks on end and are comfortable with using the computers in front of them. I could use this as an opportunity to see what kind of insect vocabulary they have remembered and produce a neat piece of art that could be all their own. Here I have a couple of examples of “Insect Wordles”.
Voki is my new favorite thing to use! I have only had a chance to utilize this website a few times, but I am already hooked!! I think one great way to apply these little virtual characters is on your class page. Whether it is a quick reminder to the parents or a homework assignment for the children this site can be used for all ages. Here is a little example of one that I might post.
