And here is what I found...
Word Clouds with Abcya
I use the website abcya all the time, but never realized they had this really cool word cloud feature. Word clouds are graphical representation of words.I think this site so much easier for students to navigate then wordle. The features are cool, yet simple to use. There a more features too.
This would be ideal for writing poems, descriptive words, and fun projects!
iPad lockdown!
If you want to lock down an iPad app so that students can't navigate to other parts of the iPad, or leaving an app.
Follow these steps...

The Guided Access feature will pop up.
You can circle certain areas within the APP that you want to disable.
Click Start to begin the Guided Access.
If the students try to click the Home button, or parts of the screen you did not authorize them to use, a message will appear that Guided Access is Enabled.
Triple Click the Home Button again to exit the APP, and enter your 4 digit passcode. Then click Exit guided access.
For those who also need a visual, here is a video that explains it all.
