You may be familiar with wordle and I have known about it for a while but, today I came across a presentation that has 51 ways to use wordle in the classroom and I thought others might want to use it.  I found this on http://www.freetech4teachers.com/ and it came from a man named Tom Barrett.  There are ideas for all levels and all subjects.  Check it out below.
