Project 3

For this project we created word puzzles using an online puzzlemaker at schooldiscovery.com.  I went to the online list of vocabulary words and selected the topic Columbus Day from the list of holidays.  I then copied all of the words into the box on the wordsearch page.  I entered a topic and then clicked on create puzzle.  The website then created the puzzle for me.  Once the puzzle was created I copied and pasted it into microsoft word.  I edited the puzzle to make sure it fit onto one page.  Once I had it formatted the way I wanted it I zoomed out and created an image of the puzzle using the print screen button.  I then copied it into microsoft paint to edit it more and to save it as an image file to be inserted onto my website.

I think this is a very useful project.  This will be very helpful to me in the future because the website gave many different puzzle models, like word search, criss-cross, letter tiles and more.  Puzzles are a great tool to teach and reinforce any topic.  Being able to make my own puzzles on whatever topic I choose will be very helpful.
