Teach 21: Main Ideas & Details – Part 2
Using Wordle – Students create a graphic organizer (accordion) for a paragraph that incorporates a main idea, details, explanations of the details, and a wrap-up. Students use the graphic organizer to create a wordle. The wordle graphically shows the difference between the big (main) ideas and the small (details) ideas.
