This image was created with Wordle. I can see many classroom applications for creating word images. This program allows you to print out your designs, use them in a blog or save them in Wordle. The Wordle image on the left contains the names of teachers that I worked with recently and from whom i learned quite a bit particularly about literacy for very young learners.Joe Dale has provided a quick Slide Share of directions for using Wordle. (This is best seen full screen by clicking the tiny screen at the bottom). Nik Peachey has also posted some intriguing ideas on how to use Wordle for English language learners. One tip that will help you use phrases is to join them with a tilde in between.
Another tip is that if you want the size wordle you see here you need to take a screen shot of your creation, turn it into a jpg. picture through a program like Paint and then use the jpg. to upload to your blog.

I love what you have created. I have learned so much new in your class. Thank you for your true dedication in teaching me about all of these cyberspace and internet websites.
Thanks, JoJo. I feel I have learned so much myself by working with your cohort. It has been a pleasure.
