Try out http://wordle.net/ It's a website where you can create word pictures. It arranges the words randomly. The more times a word is entered, the larger it appears. Phrases need to be written without spaces between. Could be useful for recording a brainstorm, word study, thesaurus. Here is an example of how it can look.

Hi Natalie Epsom here.I picked up a gem from my last breakout at Learning@School09. It's a 'self-managed learning plan' that incorporates ICT. It takes a while to get off the ground but really promotes independent, self-managed learning. The Self-Managed Learning Plan includes Activities like… Phonics focus practice sheet, Sight word practice, Lexia Reading program, story writing choice, reading a personally written story on digital video (to be viewed and critiqued/assessed for oral language skills) Language learning board games, using a variety of materials to spell our weekly spelling words, using a playdough worms to spell our weekly spelling words, using our weekly spelling words to create a role play, listening post, independent reading, photographing our activities.
