Samuel's Wordle


Wordle is a web based program that allows you to arrange words in your own fashion. I made this Wordle based on all my interests. Dad & I repeated the words that we wanted bigger eg we wrote my name about five times. You can then experiment with different fonts, different layouts and different colours.

I like this site because it is easy to use and makes fantastic imagary.

Hi Samuel,
We loved seeing your blog, Louisa did lots of scolling up & down using the keyboard (she's only 17 months old!).

I really liked the photo turned into a cartoon, will try and give this a go & send you a pic back!

Have fun,
Em, Gid, Scarlett & Louisa

PS It's raining heaps in the UK!

Hi Samuel,
Thanks for sharing your very cool idea for using the Wordle site as a way to tell more about you. I teach 9-10 year olds in the USA and will share this site and idea with them when school starts again in September. They may want to try it themselves on their personal blogs on our student blog page - http://mskreul.edublogs.org/!

Wow! Samuel. I love your Wordle image. I have been planning to try that site, but haven't done it yet. You have inspired me to give it a go. I'm impressed with your tech skills. Keep up your posting!

Hey, Samuel,
Wordle is cool! I think my two boys will enjoy playing with it. Funky looks like a neat website, too! How do you find such cool stuff on the web? Wow!

Hi Sam your sketch was much more abstract than the original, good job it really looked like someone really scared this dude.

Hi Samuel,
I love visiting your blog! I have tried out most of your ideas and will use some of them with my children at school (I work as a primary teacher, Year 1 children, in New Zealand).
Keep up the good work!
