During our reflection time, we created word clouds for the word wall in the ICT Lab using Tagxedo. Tagxedo is a free web application that lets you create a word cloud using your own text or text from a website or another source. We were excited about the fact that we could choose different kind of shapes for our word clouds. Our word clouds were made out of words we commonly used in Microsoft Word.
In Year 3, we learned new skills in Microsoft Word including, inserting pictures from a location on the network, creating tables and page boarders to decorate our work. We typed out a paragraph about ourselves and realised we needed to practice our typing regularly inorder to complete our work promptly. We included pictures of ourselves and showed what we like doing during 5 days of the week in the form of a table. We then decorated the page using a page boarder of our choice. Some students added a watermark and some used a page background.
