Fun with Text

Wordle has many applications in any grade level. For the early elementary, Wordle can be used as a class poll. Simple example - each child types in their favorite color into the text box - produces a Wordle where the most popular 'color' stands out - great for 'how do you feel today', 'favorite animal' 'what month is your birthday' etc. As students get older, classroom rules, subject concepts, comparison projects, character strength and more can be incorporated. This is also a FREE tool that can be used to help decorate the classroom.
