Infographics

Here are two infographics that I found that I would think about posting in my classroom.






Visualizing Pi  Infographic




Here is an infographic that I created on Picktochart. As you may know, I am a coach of Special Olympics Softball. This weekend I participated in the LETR Brandon Special Olympics Polar Plunge so that is what I chose to make my infographic about. It was actually pretty fun to make and Picktochart has some great templates to get started with. I like the idea of having students make infographics because they should have more visuals than words and it makes students pick out the main ideas.

  2. Haha How to survive the Polar Plunge. That's awesome you attended that event and went through with it although you could have got sick. Special Olympics is such a unique and moving experience. I know you have spent a lot of time and have a passion for it. Good for you, cool infographic.

  5. I have become a huge fan of infographics and definitely plan to use them in the future. I like the idea of making posters for a cause - something you could do in your classroom (Remembrance Day, Christmas, etc). Lots of great ideas and options with infographics.
