Educational Value of Wordle

A Wordle is a wonderful visual for vocabulary words on a new topic. Wordle can be used to get an idea of main topics presented in an article. Students are able to copy and paste an assigned article into the Wordle program, and the program will create a visual that emphasizes the words that occur most frequently in the article. Wordle can also be used to make connections between words within the topic and among previous topics covered. Students are able to type vocabulary words into the program and transform a boring hand written list to a colorful cloud of words!
