Tag Galaxy

This is Tag Galaxy. http://taggalaxy.de/

My class has been using it as a starter for a poetry lesson. We focused on a poem called Cat in the Window taken from the Poetry Class web site. http://www.poetryclass.net/

Using the tag search we put in 'cat in window' this created a galaxy with different planets.

Selecting the main planet allowed us to see hundreds of pictures of cats in windows and to start a discussion collecting ideas for the poem.

See the class 3C blog for examples of the children's poems.

I always check the outcomes of searches prior to using this with children in the classroom.
