There are some web pages that are useful for implementing this kind of tool, for example: http://www.tagxedo.com/ and http://www.tagxedo.com/
I will focus on a third option this time: Wordle.
Now, the way in which we can work with it is easy. First, choose a word you think it would be meaningful to work with your learners. Second, find the definition of it in an online dictionary, such as dictionary.reference, copy the meaning and paste it in the box provided by Wordle. Once you have copied the definitions, press "Go" and you will see your word cloud. Once you send your students the image, they can try to "guess" the word you have chosen by connecting all the words they see in the picture.
Another game you can play with your learners is using this tool for them to find the right order of a sentence. In this way, they will be dealing with grammar and vocabulary while they are having a good time.
