Popplet is a fun and interactive way for students to record ideas, sort information and present information in a fun way.
Popplets are little bubbles that can include text, a picture and even a Youtube clip.
It is super easy to use and I have used Popplets with students in Stages 1, 2 and 3.
Popplet bubbles can then be linked to similar bubbles to create a mind map. It is also very useful for sorting ideas prior to writing an information report. You can show the students that the linked ideas are ideas that go in the same paragraph.
Popplet is another free site - you get five free Popplets per person who signs up.
It is worth a look! (click on the image above to go to the site!)
