Last night, as you know, President Obama gave his State of the Union Address. Hopefully you all watched at least some of the speech last night....several channels also had the speech translated in Spanish so you have no excuse! Above is something called a Wordle. This is a graphic that displays the most common words that President Obama said in his speech. The larger the word, the more often he used it. By looking at this Wordle someone can get an idea of what the speech was mainly about just by seeing what words were used.
What words do you see?
Are there some you don't know/understand?
Which is the most important, in your opinion?
After you study the Wordle from President Obama's speech click on this link. It will take you to another blog. When you get there, click on the picture of the Wordle on the top of the page. This will show you Wordle's from a couple other presidents such as Georege Washington and Abraham Lincoln. Study the Worlde's and look for the differences between the past presidents and our current president.
