I will check it out shortly. Pam, thanks, but I'm more interested in non-Australian perspectives in this instance. I'd predict that your results would not be much different to ours.

Yesterday we created a wordle from some collaborative brainstorming we did with Paringa on what the word endangered means to us. We did that in etherpad then put results in Wordle & put it on our blog. I'd be happy to help out with this but won't be back in my class until Friday now. That means they'd do it over the weekend and I could share it with you Monday. If that's OK let me know. So bizarre Graham.

Thought of Alisa Miller's TED Talk, found it and copied the link, logged onto your blog to post the link and ..... Bugger!! Beaten to it. Definitely worth watching and showing your kids. Only 4 mins and 29 seconds too! Cheers Paul Funny how great minds think alike, or in my case, fools seldom differ :) Just read you post in my Google reader.
