Here is the link to my "Wish List" poster. I posted a thumbnail, to get a better view click on the link. This poster is just basically things that I one day hope to get for myself. If I wasn't pursuing a career in teaching I would be somewhere in the fashion world. I read vogue religiously, fashion is definitely one of my passions. This is a wonderful tool for the classroom! Students can create their own wishlists for the holidays, or posters. Posters can be created on the first day of class to introduce themselves, or they can be created to present a project. It adds a twist to the traditional way of making posters. I think students as young as 3rd grader can use glogster and word cloud. They are old enough to follow instructions carefully and by this age they are more technology knowledgeable. In my opinion these programs are a bit more difficult than Word and Paint. They offer a lot more options which makes it more difficult to work, but this also makes these programs better! If students follow directions, and play around with the programs they will be able to use them properly.
