Wordle.net is becoming one of the most used new technology tools for teachers. It is free, and versatile enough to be used in any area of the curriculum. There are lots of different ways to use Wordle, so I decided to compile a few of my favorites with some I already use and put them together in a top ten list. They are in no particular order, but if you want to check them out, click the following link to see my Top 10 Wordle Lessons for the Classroom.

Thank you. It works wonderfully now. I myself am a great wordle fan, as a teacher of foreign language I find it very useful for revising vocabulary, introducing new topics and many other purposes.

The flexibility of Wordle is probably the best thing about it. Its uses are limited only by your imagination!

Quite agree with you. I have also discovered that wordle supports students' creativity to great extent as well. Texts, that have presented as wordle clouds have provoked great discussions in classroom.That's actually a language teacher dream.
