Latin American Tagxedo

Students in Ms. Cheston’s class, researched a topic in Latin America and then wrote a brief essay before sharing what they learned with their classmates. To visual represent their essay, they loaded it in Tagxedo and chose an image that reflected their topic. They could put the words in the shape of their image or around the image leaving the shape plan and their words as the background. Tagxedo is similar to Wordle, in that the more often the words appeared in their essay, the more prominent they were in their Tagxedo! See if you can identify the shape and prevalent words about their topics! Enjoy!
