Word Art is one of my favorite app. I think is really useful to have in a classroom. It is a very good way to organize all paper work, and add a bit of fun and color. It also helps with imagination, children can twist and stretch and have fun with the words. Younger children can learn letters, numbers and shapes in an enjoyable way. The app can be used for different occasions like Halloween, Valentines Day, Christmas, to create different pieces of art. It is interesting that you can introduce the child’s name so it becomes personalized.
There are some more WordArt effects that I would like to introduce to you,for e.g. how to get a rainbow text. Down below is a link you can access to get some help to create a rainbow text.
