Hana Noʻeau ma ka Papa ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi

My Project

This year, I have seen how creative my students can be. They have showed interest in creating short stories from their own experiences along with the stories that come from their own imagination. Seeing them excited to want to create books and stories in the Hawaiian language has brought so much joy to myself and the class.

With the iPads and Pencils received, the students will be able to design their own books, activities and share what they have created to not only our classes, but to the world.

Our goal is to create a library of short stories and children books written by the students, that can be shared with other Hawaiian language schools and classes.
