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.

There is much more that one can do with Kanagram, teachers can create
 +
their own word lists.
