Fall Writing Display

FALL DISPLAY

Tagzedos and Wordles are so much fun. Here is a Tagzedo created with words generated from the students to describe our class. Each student created his/her own Tagzedo with describing words about him or herself. First, I had the students write describing words about themselves on index cards. They used their index cards as references to type in the words on the computer. I led students throught the process of creating their Tagzedos and uploading them to our class wiki. For this activity, the process of creating, typing, along with writing descriptive words and the product of the Tagzedos were meaningful and fun!

It is kind of like the musical math I did below but what I love about this is that you can actually use it as an assessment too: formal or informal. What a super idea!
