I-TOUCH KANA LEVELS
Learn the Japanese characters with IPAD/ITOUCH!
This is an individual program designed for all learners of the Japanese language to begin their journey
in Listening, Reading and Writing, to the Japanese characters. Using the IPAD/ITOUCH, you will learn
Hiragana and Katakana at your own level and can move on at your own pace.
There are 8 Levels (Levels 1-8). Firstly decide which level you are going to start at. Level 1 is the
easiest beginning with the basic 48 hiragana characters, and Level 8 is the hardest, finishing with both
Hiragana and Katakana combinations and words.
WHERE DO I START?
Year 7 students with no Japanese knowledge should start at Level 1, and those students that have
learnt Japanese since Primary School should begin their journey at Level 2. Year 8 students with 〃°
(tantan/chonchon) knowledge should begin at Level 3. And, Year 9/10 students beginning Katakana
should begin at Level 4 or 5.
Every Japanese lesson you will be given the opportunity to use an ITOUCH in order to master the
Japanese characters, hiragana and katakana. It is your responsibility to report your test scores and
progress to your Japanese teacher.
