Hi! One of the spelling homework assignments is to create a Wordle (word picture) using the website wordle.net.create. We went over the directions in class today. Please read below what we discussed...
- Students can choose to do the assignment using the Wordle site OR they can create a wordle on their own using colored pencils or markers. They do not have to use the internet for this assignment.
- Do a test to make sure the wordle is working... type in a couple of quick words and see if it creates a picture first. This is a great website, but can sometimes be a little testy.
- Students can use other wordle type websites if parents would like them to. One we looked at in class is Tagzedo.com.
- TROUBLESHOOTING!!!...If for any reason the wordle does not print (computer error, lack of ink, etc.) PLEASE do not spend time trying to trouble shoot or getting ink. Please just write a note that your child completed the assignment and turn that in on Friday. If there is a printing issue, you can also take a screen shot and email the homework to me. (kberg@sd25.org). The intention of the lesson is to practice spelling words, not troubleshooting 101.
If you have any other questions, please let me know. I will be happy to help in any way I can!
