Rachael StrubleThis is an amazing website designed for visual learners that need to see a word (noun) and everything that it relates to. It gives you words that is a kind of, is an instance of, is a member of, part of, substance of, similar to, pertains to, participle attribute, verb-group of, entails, also see, causes, and derivation of that world that you typed in. It is like a dictionary, but it also gives you more information, presented in a graphic organizer.

I love this site because of how nicely it plays w/ our SMART
Boards. It has become a great tool for initiating discussions in ELA
classrooms. Simply hit the “Random” button and discuss the word w/ your class. You
can of course use this as a vocabulary extension activity as well. I worked w/
one class using Visuwords where we tried to predict (as a class and in small
groups . . . nice way to allow for differentiation) related nouns, verbs, etc. This
activity created engaging classroom discussion!
In the schools where we have access to a SMART Board we use the pens to write
our predictions, capture them to the Notebook and then discussed the discrepancies.
Let me know how you use it in your classroom!
