Things to remember...
Using Wordle.net
- Copy and Paste your words onto the Wordle box. If you type directly in the box, if you want to increase how many times a word appears, you will lose your words! Use either a document in Google Docs or Pages, if you still don't have access.
- The more times a word appears in the list, the larger it will be on the word cloud!
