Revitalizing the Hawaiian language is a critical part of preserving and perpetuating the Hawaiian culture. Hawaiian, along with English, is the official state language; however, many students do not speak Hawaiian or even know common words and phrases in the Hawaiian language.
My hope is that through exposure to the Hawaiian language, my students will play a role in preserving the Hawaiian culture.
This project includes Hawaiian language picture books as well as a class set of Hawaiian language coloring books. We have several wonderful immersion schools on the island, but the majority of students do not have adequate exposure to Hawaiian. I hope that, by including fun and engaging resources for my students, they will continue to learn, grow, and thrive within the Hawaiian language.
More than half of students from low‑income households
