Using the iPad in the Library?

At the end of the school day, some of our haumāna (students) hang-out in the learning center to start on their ha’awina ho’iho’i (homework), browse and borrow a book, or interact with some fun & cool learning apps. on Kumu Kanani’s ipad.  These students are breezing through rhyming words, vocabulary building, and homophones with Bluster! They decided to play it in versus mode and went head-to-head to test their quickness. Bluster includes over 800 vocabulary words. Players choose a skill to practice and then try to make matches of three. Ten matches wins a round.
