What the Wordle? - a new vocab. game

I have been playing around with wordle for teaching vocabulary. Made this game. My focus is mainly EFL / ESL but this could be good for regular class teachers too. Grouping/organizing the vocabulary could be a great critical thinking activity and also adding to the lists...

I created a nice worksheet where students guess and then try to add to the lists. Get points for each correct guess.

I used flash for the first few I did but really like the next few I did in Picasa. Click here for the full screen version of this example below. I 'm looking for any comments, ideas for extending/bettering and also if you might know an alternative photoslideshow for presenting... enjoy and lots others on our community EFL Classroom 2.0

I've been busy making more What the Wordles.

Here's one on Word Order.

Here's another called What the Wordle is Different.

I hope to make a website with a nice/quick tagged selection of everything shortly. Print possibility but right now you can get many of these in ppt for printing HERE on EFL classroom

Ideas to make lessons for teaching with wordle welcomed!

Cheers,

David
