Making this Wordle was soooo much fun! I typed in sentences about the story Flight of the Phoenix that my 5th grade students are reading. The words that you use the most show up the largest. I think this would be a very useful and motivating tool for my students. I would like to see them typing in summaries of chapters in their books.
This is a project that I made to introduce the book Flight of the Phoenix to my 5th graders. I used images from the book as well as real images that depicted one of the settings in the story. The images show some of the characters and sketches that the main character made during the course of the book. I was able to choose music that sets the mood for adventure. The students asked me to replay the video several times. After we watched, we listed what we saw in the video and made predictions about the story. I will definitely use this tool again!
