Chicago History ABC Book Covers - Wordle

Today in class students began creating the final step of their Chicago History ABC book covers - making the actual Wordle.  Many students wanted to print their Wordle at home so that it was in color (not required!).  We will be doing final prints of the Wordles (printed in black and white) in class on Friday.  Listed below are the directions in case your child wants to do so:
