This is a mini-lesson supporting ELL/ELD in Ontario. Completed as a part of an AQ. Consider this a small demo of the TGJ20 course I have been developing. Coming soon (hopefully). In British Columbia, this may be called IT10.

This is an assignment assisting students in developing their reading and writing. In particular this activity is built to assist in the development of a student who struggles in writing especially, and comes from another language and culture, but has a background in English.

Students select a reading based on choices given by the teacher and then (using tagxedo), they can create a word cloud of their own.

Modified Overall expectation for this  mini-lesson:

A2. demonstrate an understanding of technical terminology, basic scientific concepts, and mathematical concepts used in communications technology and apply them to the creation of media products;
