I had a go at some simple word clouds. Very visual, could be used for spelling words each week - instead using Spelling City the learners could type in their spelling words a number of times helping them to learn them and the result would be a visual personal poster for the week's spelling words. If studing the states of Australia the L/M could make a poster for the classroom. Perhaps even a way of displaying a food chain for science, producers could be entered once until the final consumer level entered many times to show the flow of energy. In English learners may be asked to write as many descriptive words (adjectives) about something, for example the beach, how does it make them feel etc
The below examples I just wrote in words to do with a topic, the first E-Learning, 2nd numbers 1 to 10, 3rd states of Australia and finally Science words. They were very quick to create and with more time could be made to be quite engaging and visual for the classroom.
Word Clouds could be used by all Primary years when shown how.
