Okay...here's another tool I'm getting hooked on as I explore the tools of 21C! WORDLE! I simply made a wordle graphic using a simple set of vocabulary words, and this can then be used as a trigger for some creative writing, creative drawing, or even as a word bank for an 0pen response assignment. It can also be great for a brainstorming exercise in class, as you have the kids suggest words or ideas, use the SmartBoard and computer to type in the words, and you have an easy capture of key ideas that the kids helped to create! Can't wait to really use this!
