Hummi the doctor bird and missions
Your learning buddy, quiz missions around Jamaica, streaks and the different ways to answer.
🐦 Meet Hummi
Hummi is a doctor bird (Jamaica's national bird) who flies beside you in every activity. Hummi cheers when you get it right, helps when you get it wrong, and celebrates when you finish.
- Tap Hummi for a tip about the question.
- Double-tap Hummi to send Hummi to rest. Tap again to bring Hummi back.
- Give your buddy a name and buy outfits (a cap, cool shades, a crown and more) with your coins in 🏆 Rewards.
- Hummi talks! Turn the sound off with the 🔊 button at the top. Hummi stays quiet in low-data mode.
🗺️ Missions
Your home page has three missions to choose from, each from a different subject. Pick the one you like!
Every quiz is a mission somewhere in Jamaica: helping Miss Lily at Coronation Market, climbing Dunn's River Falls, diving on the reef at Negril and lots more. Each question moves you along the journey bar to the prize at the end. Finish with 2 or 3 stars to complete the mission! Spelling, phonics, word searches, memory match, crosswords and other practice games have missions too, shown at the top. At special times of year there are seasonal missions too: back to school, Heritage Week, Grand Market at Christmas, Jamaica Day, Champs, Easter kites and Independence. Press 🔊 Hear the story to have the mission read to you.
🇯🇲 My Jamaica
Open 🗺️ My Jamaica from your home page to fly round the island, one parish at a time.
- Earn stars in any activity to reach the next parish. You can see how many more you need.
- Take on the parish ⚔️ boss challenge. Get 2 stars or more to collect the parish stamp for your passport, plus 20 coins.
- Every parish has a fun fact to learn. Can you collect all 14 stamps?
👻 Ghost races
In a quiz, a ghost 👻 races you along the journey bar. It is the best run by someone in your class (you see their first name and the first letter of their last name), or your own best score if nobody has tried it yet. Beat their score, or match it faster, to win the race!
🤝 Class quests
Every week your class has a star goal, shown on your home page. Every star anyone in your class earns counts. Reach the goal together and everyone gets 15 coins! A new quest starts every Monday.
🔥 Streaks
Get answers right in a row to build a streak. The 🔥 meter grows, and at 5 in a row there's a party!
