 * What is it?

Piclits is a website which you can choose an image and then add words to represent your thinking/ reflection. You can either use the words provided to you on the site and drag and drop them onto the picture or you can add your own words. Note: you can not do both if you change between the two the words will not stay on the picture.

The word lists will change with the picture. Other word options and capitalization is available if you click on the arrow next to the word.

=How could it be used in the classroom?= This tool could be used as a reflection tool for any learning experience, reading, process etc. It is good for vocabulary building and brainstorming (note it does not give word definitions). Inspirational messages- cards Responding to other children's work. Goal setting. Posters


 * __Some limitations__**

You can't save a growing vocab list that the class comes up with. Some younger children may not understand many of the word meanings. Can't limit the choice of pictures - there is a huge amount of choice which may make decision making difficult for some children. Need to watch the site for offensive language (the gallery part of the site) || ||
