Woordle!

      Woordle.net !!!

I think that woordle.net is a very great website to help with expanding and help with creating an artistic way to show vocabulary to students. Woordle is a website where you can create "word clouds" with different vocaulary words that are part of a chapter, unit, or lesson that is being discussed. The more important and frequent used words appear larger in the "word cloud" so that they stand out to the students. When the woordle is made you can change the color and font to your own personal preference and whatever you desire. When your "word cloud" is finished, you can print it out or put it in a gallery to display to students. Woordle has to do with Social Studies because it can help with students building knowledge (structure of knowledge by bruner)  students will learn focabulary and be able to build facts, concepts, generalizations, and metacognition
