Welcome!
This space was created to share information, ideas and material on teaching / learning English. Just because it is "work", it doesn't mean it doesn't have to be interesting, fun or creative.

You can use the site http://www.wordle.net/ to make your own clouds. You can use an existing document or provide your own list of words.
This is an example taken from:
