Today in class, students learned how to take our usual "ABC" chart to create a Word Cloud using wordclouds.com. Below is a sample of one project completed.
Here, a student takes an orange and practices personification with to personify presidential candidate, Donald Trump! Next, he finds words associated with the candidate and masks the photo with those words! Check it out!
How could you use Word Cloud to show multiple layers of meaning? Check out the link below!
Check out some of the fantastic Word Clouds students made today over the word, "harness."
Students discussed what "multiple layers of meaning" means.
Layer 1: 26 words related to one topic "harness"
Layer 2: Choosing an image to place words in that is related to the definition of the word
Layer 3: Writing a synopsis that describes the child's decision for choosing their picture.
