The other week I was asked to give three 20 minute presentations to groups of 4th & 5th graders at the Woodside Elementary School in Topsham, Maine, USA. These presentations were part of a sorta “career fair” whereby the kids would travel between presentations every 20 minutes in order to get a feeling for each job. I loved the concept and the format - however it did feel a bit like “speed-dating-for-jobs”.

We were asked to emphasize a number of  vocabulary works which “model success” so I naturally dumped them into worldle in order to give them a more visual impact. I love worldle - it’s such a quick and effective tool. I think the kids liked it too because below is the “thank you” card they sent me.
