#6 Study Tools and Art Vocabulary

I used Tagxedo to create a word cloud which includes most of our 5th grade art vocabulary. I could play with Tagxedo for hours shifting around the font, color, and shapes. I feel it's easy to work with and easy to save and share. I would use this again in my teaching for handouts, worksheets, and parent communications. Using Quizlet I created a set of flashcards for the 3rd grade art vocabulary. Every year we give a pre-test and post-test on these art words. I will be able to use these or share these vocabulary flashcards on my webpage or blog for parents and students if they care to study.

  1. Both study tools you chose are great ways to introduce or review vocabulary. Did you know that your Tagxedo is linked to Google automatically? If you click on a word, it does a Google search for it to help find definitions or examples. I like that Tagxedo lets you save your project in so many different formats. Quizlet has some fun review games too. I bet the fifth and third graders will enjoy these! :)
