Great site for making mind maps and doing online brainstorming. Able to be exported and shared with others. Great tool for teacher collaborators and for kids! Super easy to use

This is a very cool site to find words with similar meanings. Type in a word and then a visual web of words with similar meanings.
graphical knowldege engine; might be useful in classroom to compare books, etc. More recently I tried inserting term (community) and was impressed with the automatically generated web/semantic map.
VocabGrabber is word cloud resource that allow you to enter text and then it automatically generates a thesaurus of word meanings. Looks interesting for helping students with difficult vocabulary.
