Wordle!

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! 

Kiss and Make up!

For thousands of years, girls (and some girly men), have been using the art of make up. But I'm going to look at the better uses of make up other than making a woman's face glow like the reflection of the sun..

Another impressive way to use make up is using it to apply to charecters in films. Do you think this next charecter from the trilogy "The Dark Knight" would be as chilling as he is without the use of make up?
