Way back last year, I read this blog post by Tia Henriksen, where she created a word cloud from her blog posts. I made a note in my “future blog ideas” file to borrow her idea for myself. Then I went about my life for a few more months. Today I read this blog review by Jessica Johnson, where she mentioned Tia’s blog and created her own word cloud, and I was reminded of this great idea! So without further ado, here is a word cloud based on my blog posts:

As I look at this, I LOVE that reflections, learning, questions, and students stand out to me, as the larger the word, the more often I used it in my blog posts. I also see Twitter, leadership and leaders. I feel proud that the focus of my blog is evident in this summary- I use this blog to reflect on leading and learning. I hope to continue this work in the new year.

What would your word cloud look like?
