A lot of my time as a teachers assistant was spent creating displays for teachers and finding the correct resources to do so, I have recently stumbled upon something that is quick, easy, creative and very fun to look at especially by children. The web site 'Wordle' uses web 2.0 technology that is known as 'Java' and is a resource for creating text clouds such as the one created below. It is completely free to use and has no catches. Firstly, click on the following link to take you to wordle: http://www.wordle.net/create.
Next, think of a topic. Mine was music, and i simply input any words I could think of to do with music, for example; for technology i might type Camera, Computers, Whiteboard, Laptop, Mobile, Phone ect.
Next, click on the "go" button below the text box.
And you're done! Simply customize the layout using the options above the picture!
Tip: The more words the better it looks!
