What is it?

Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like. You can print them out, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends.

How does it work?


 * 1) Upload Your Text or Link To a Website
 * 2) Edit your word cloud's layout, coloring, or have Wordle Randomize it for you.

How can we use this in the classroom?


 * Cut and Paste stories, speeches, or any writing to find out key words.
 * Create Posters for summarizing.
