Where do I find Wordle?

American Government students can find information about how to compose a Wordle by clicking this link.

For example, choose a chapter, select 25 words and input them into the wordle generator and wallah!, you have your wordle.

Experiment with color, font, and layout. Please print your wordle at home. No color printing of wordles at school - remember, there is no budget for this expense. There may be an opportunity copy-and-paste multiple students' wordles on to a Word document during your class period and print them in black-and-white, but these MUST be done with the least amount of black coverage possible in order to save on toner.

Students who complete a Wordle and copy their link may earn extra credit by posting the link and adding a small comment to this posting below. Look at my comment for an example.

Attention All Students -

Please click your SPECIFIC link above by period for your homework.

Government students may earn extra credit this week by leaving a comment IN YOUR PERIOD POST - not on this main page. Your comment should be specific to one or two areas of interest you have, or question(s) you hope to get answers to as we progress through the semester. Try to be as specific as possible.

Welcome all Students to Fall 2011

Welcome new Freshman and returning students to NAHS.

For the Seniors, this is an exciting time for you. Your final year in high school can be challenging and incredibly rewarding at the same time. Focus and concentrate on your studies and the rest will take care of itself. Graduation is just 40 weeks away!

Underclassmen and especially Freshman, now is the time to either continue with your hard work, or begin to chart your course through high school.

I, of course, remain committed to guide and assist you with these endeavors.
