Have you ever experienced a time where you had a word on the tip of your tounge, yet you were unable to recall it? You were able to describe the word while, and still your brain would not cooperate..
Well my friends, OneLook is your solution! Simply type in the characteristics of a concept and you will receive a list of related words. If you are a crossword puzzle fanatic, you might find OneLook really helpful.
I can foresee a variety content areas using OneLook in order to have students create word clouds showing how different vocabulary words are related. I have found that if students can make a visual connection between multiple vocabulary concepts, they have an easier time learning, understanding, and internalizing the vocabulary.
