3.3 Wordle This wordle can be very effective as a before reading strategy to provide the students with some background knowledge on the topic as well as important vocabulary. It gives the reader information on some of the 5 Ws. For example, we can use the Wordle to explore who was involved, where it took place, what happened, and even some of the causes and effects of the event. It provokes thought and questions for the students and allows them to think about what they will be reading about.  Visual learners would benefit as well students who benefit from a word bank. Students who have organizational difficulties may have difficulty with this type of strategy or may need a 10 word limit when using it.
