| + | |
| + | |
| + | Kanagram is a computer application which can introduce children to |
| + | build their vocabularies and introduce them to new words. This |
| + | application comes with a pre-loaded list of words. However, teachers |
| + | and students can create new list of words. Given below is a step by |
| + | step procedure of using these applications. |

| + | This figure shows the main screen of Kanagram. The word in the middle |
| + | of the screen ''''haneetpl' '''has to be decoded and the answer is |
| + | to be written in the white bar locaed at the bottom of the screen. |
| + | Clicking on ''''hint'''', located on the bottom left corner of the |
| + | screen will reveal the hint, which can help the person in identifying |
| + | the word. |

| + | their own word lists. |
