Bloom’s Taxonomy Bloomin’ Pinwheel
Over the past few weeks I have been sharing some of my Boom’s Taxonomy re-imagines. I created these for my classroom so that I could share Bloom’s with my kids in different ways that would make our classroom fun, but also give them a different way of viewing the information. Today I am sharing my Bloomin’ Pinwheel. As I started making my Bloom’s re-imagines, students started coming to me with ideas of how to display the information. The pinwheel was a student recommendation. I think it turned out pretty cute! Some of you have asked what program I used to create my pictures. I use Apple’s Pages for almost everything, the Bloom’s Taxonomy was no exception. I use the free hand drawing tool, the shapes, fill tool, text box, and inspector to make my version of Bloom’s Taxonomy.
Below you will find my original Bloomin’ Pinwheel, along with my digital version. Many of you have asked for a printable version of these Bloom’s Taxonomy re-imagines, you can now find a bundle of 4 (Bloomin’ Peacock, Um-bloom-ra, Bloomin’ Pinwheel, and Bloomin’ Tree) in my store. You will get 8 8.5″x11″ posters, this includes the digital version of each.
Here are links to the digital tools in my Boomin’ Pinwheel:
