Wordle.net
Wordle generates “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text.

In your classrooms listen to the speech first and then drop into Wordle. Discuss tone. Evaluate the speech again – what words are significant? Why?
