Christmas Word Clouds
Mrs. Henning gave me the sweetest gift, a word cloud Christmas Tree comprised with all my family's names. She put it in a pretty frame and I can see my children and grandchildren's names in it. I will treasure this and bring it out in the future during the holidays. I liked it so much I wanted to try it myself. Here is an example I made this morning using Tagxedo: I would recommend this for an easy gift. Print it out on nice paper with a good color printer, frame it and you'll have a gift that anyone would love to have! Merry Christmas and have a wonderful vacation. See you on January 6th!

December 9-15: Computer Science Education Week!
I just learned that next week is Computer Science Education Week! Join students across the nation and learn more about code: the foundation for virtually any career. There are tutorials and computer puzzles to help you learn simple code. Have fun and expose your mind to something fun and useful.
