[|Using Wordle]



== Wordle is used by either typing a paragraph/list of words or by inserting typed text inside a given box. Once text is inputted, a Wordle (word cloud) is created. The more frequently the words are used, the larger the word(s) will appear. Wordle allows you to format the size, shape, and/or color of your word cloud. Students could use Wordles to review information for a test, practice vocabulary words, and provide the chance to show some creativity. Wordle is FUN! ==

[|Using Rubistar]



== Rubistar is a site we used this week to create a rubric. This is a time saver for teachers. Teachers can choose any subject and/or project that they need to create a rubric for. Rubistar has it all! However it is important that teachers double check what they are asking students to complete. Does it make sense? ==
