One of the tools that I've used in the past is "Wordle". What's cool
about
it is that it accentuates words used more frequently. It would mean (for
example) asking your dancers to respond to a prompt like, "Contra dancing
is...". Then put all the responses into a document and paste that into
Wordle. The result is usually quite striking. Of course you could just
generate the text yourself. I suspect that you all know about this but I
thought it was time to weigh in :-P What else does a Jewish boy do on
Christmas Day?
A joyous holiday of your choice to all of you!
