Popplet is a free tool that will allow you to create word webs and organize the vocabulary you learn using your creativity. You can create webs or columns of content words to refer to them for later use. It`s a very simple to use tool and it`s entirely free. You just need to create an account with your email and give wings to your imagination.
The first thing you need to is: create an account with a personal email. At the right top of the page you will find a button for that.
The next step is to click on the MAKE A NEW POPPLET button to start creating your word web.
A box will pop up in which you will type in the idea you would like to brainstorm. See images below. In this example, the words in connection with crime are listed:

Lesson 3
Target: Intermediate students
Topic: Crime
Grade: 9th
WARM UP
The teacher will start the class by asking the students who haven´t read their crime strips in the previous class to present their work. After that the teacher will ask students to open POPPLET.COM
WEB
Students will be using POPPLET at this time. They will be creating the following columns with the categories: CRIMES – CRIMINALS - WEAPONS - INFINITIVE VERBS – PAST SIMPLE. The purpose is for them to create a diagram in which they will include everything they have learned. This can later be used for further reference for study purposes.
WHAT´S NEXT
Students will be reading all the elements they have included under the categories. In case, they don´t remember a word their classmates have used, this is a good moment for revision. If any student would like to add a word they don´t have, they will have a chance to do so.
