Padlet is a free tool that lets you create word walls. With the free account, you have a limit of three walls. Recently, we discovered a new open-source tool called Digipad (created especially for education). With this tool, you can create unlimited word walls. You also have access to other types of tools on the main website called La Digitale. This page presents Padlet as a model, but you can do the same things with Digipad. 

Before Using These Tools

Make sure that you are not sharing sensitive or personal information on these word walls. 

Since Digipad is a free and open-source application, it might close at any time.
