THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS-A UNIT OF STUDY THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS - A UNIT OF STUDY SUBJECT: THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS TOPIC: CULTURAL DESCRIPTION: AN ACTIVE RESEARCH PAPER ON THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS - A UNIT OF STUDY LESSON ONE Students will be assigned to groups of four to five members. Each group will be given an island name. The groups will be responsible for researching their island (location, population, latitude/longitude, natural resources, business or trade, etc.). The teacher will provide a resource center from which students can utilize books, encyclopedias, newspaper clippings, and travel/tour guides to gather information for preparation of their reports. These reports will be presented to the class on the last day of the unit at a Luau. The teacher will explain that each student will keep a "Hawaiian Journal" and the folders will be distributed. The class will view a video tape which depicts the history of Hawaii including: its formation by volcanoes; the location of the islands in the Pacific Ocean; the different people who migrated to populate the islands; the chiefs(kings) and queens who ruled the islands; the customs and religions of the people; Captain James Cook's discovery of the islands; the settling of Hawaii and its colonization; the process and time line to make it the 50th state of the United States; and the present state of the island including industry, trade and the tourism business. Following the video, the teacher will ask questions about the video to determine the students' comprehension of the information. LESSON TWO The teacher will instruct the students on the layers of the earth, properties of volcanoes, and the formation of the Hawaiian Islands. For a class activity, each group will construct a volcano. The groups will work cooperatively to make play-dough, measuring the ingredients and adding food coloring to achieve a desired color for their volcano. After all groups have constructed their volcano, they will activate them using a recipe that will produce a lava flow. The students will draw a picture of their volcano and record their observations of the lava flow in their Hawaiian Journal. LESSON THREE The class will explore the people and culture of the Hawaiian Islands. They will follow a time line including: the history of the islands beginning with the first Polynesian settlers; the population of the islands; the discovery by Captain James Cook; the migration of settlers and missionaries from the U.S., Europe, China, Japan, Portugal, etc.; the process of Hawaii becoming the 50th state in the U.S. They will study the islands and the population on each island. They will compare the life of a typical family in Hawaii today with their own family and write the comparison in their journals. The class will explore customs such as the hula dance, luau and lei. They will begin to plan for a luau to be held the last day of the unit. They will plan the menu, dress and make leis for the occasion. Each group will be assigned a grocery list for the food. They will be given a budget to purchase the items on the grocery list. On the day before the luau, the class will take a field trip to the grocery store to purchase the items. They must stay within the budget for their list. Also at the grocery story, the students will list any items they find that may have come from Hawaii, other than those on their list. They will also begin to make the leis for the luau. LESSON FOUR The students will explore the natural resources of the Hawaiian Islands, wildlife, rainforests and national parks. They will view a video tape on rain forests and their importance to the ecosystem. Following the video, the class will discuss within their group the information in the tape. They will list the wildlife native to the islands, the plants, fish, etc.. The students will make tropical fish which are native to the Hawaiian Islands using construction paper, felt, pipecleaners, etc. and these will be displayed in the classroom. LESSON FIVE The class will have a guest speaker. Barbara Smith, who has visited the Hawaiian Islands three times will share her experiences and photos with the class. Afterward, the class will work within their groups to write an advertisement promoting the travel to the Hawaiian Islands. Their goal will be to highlight the aspects of Hawaii they would most enjoy and encourage other people to visit. The advertisements will be posted outside the room in the hall for the school to read. THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS - A UNIT OF STUDY OVERVIEW The following five lesson plans reflect only a portion of an integrated unit developed to teach students about the Hawaiian Islands. This unit would be a great topic to study during the dreary winter months of January or February. It would span a two to three week period, dependent on the number of students in the class, the number of activities and centers utilized and the overall pace of the class. The teacher may determine the pace by student interest and response. For example, if the students wish to pursue the study of volcanoes and the earth to regions other than Hawaii, this unit could be expanded by a week to accommodate the extra material. The teacher should use discretion in evaluating the students desires and interests and develop the unit appropriately. The class will be divided into groups of four to five students each. These groups should be of mixed developmental levels, allowing the students to work cooperatively pooling their individual strengths and assisting one another. The activities in the unit will be varied to allow each student an opportunity to be successful and utilize their individual talents or skills. Each group will be given an island name and be responsible for researching their island (location, population, natural resources, volcanoes, business/trade, etc.). A report will be given to the class at the conclusion of the unit at a Luau, complete with native food, dress, leis and music. Throughout the unit the students will keep a "Hawaiian Journal." These will be color coded by group and each group will design a cover for their folders related to their particular island. At conclusion of the unit the journal will be graded for completeness. All work, research and information accumulated during the study will be contained in the journal. Each day, the teacher will assign vocabulary words pertaining to the information to be covered that day. The students will be responsible for working within their groups to define the words using resources provided or from the information they learn in class. The unit will include study on the topics listed below. However, the unit should not be limited to these only. The teacher may eliminate or add topics to make the unit more meaningful and interesting to the student. At conclusion of the unit, the students will have worked cooperatively in groups to complete research and projects. They will have gained ownership and understanding of the topics studied. They will represent their understanding through the written expression in their journals, completeness of the learning center activities, and in the oral reports they present at the class luau. TOPICS OF STUDY: - the formation of the islands by volcanoes - history of the Hawaiian Islands - the people, customs, religions - the natural resources, national parks, rain forests, and wildlife - the modernization of the islands and the history of Hawaii becoming a state - the role of Pearl Harbor in World War II - the tourism trade in Hawaii - the cost of living and life on the islands today LEARNING CENTERS INSTRUCTIONAL BOARD An instructional board will be in place the first day of studying the Hawaiian Islands. A sign up sheet will posted for students to write their names after completing all of the activities. It will include 6 activities. 1. Identify the layers of the earth. The students will identify the four layers of the earth on a laminated sheet osted below a felt construction of the earth. They will check their work with an answer key located in a pocket on the board. 2. Define the layers of the earth. The students will match the terms which identify the layers of the earth with their definition. The definitions will be posted on the board, and the students will attached with Velcro, the matching terms that are printed on laminated posterboard. They will check work with an answer key located in a pocket on the board. 3. Identify the parts of the volcano. A felt construction of a volcano will be posted on the board and the parts will be numbered. The students will attached with Velcro, the matching terms that are printed on laminated poster board. They will check their work with an answer key located in a pocket on the board. 4. Word scramble. Choose six (or more if desired) Hawaiian terms. Scramble the letters and post them on the board. Leave blanks for the students to unscramble the letters and spell the term correctly. Underneath the scrambled letters, post the correct spelling for the students to check their work. Example: O C N A O L V 5. Identify the islands. Post a laminated, scale map with the islands numbered 1-8. On a laminated sheet, the students will identify the islands by name. They may check their work with an answer key located in a pocket on the board. 6. Measure the distance between the islands. Using the same laminated, scale map, students will use a "bean stick" to calculate the distance between islands in beans. Next, they will use a scale mileage stick to calculate the distance in miles. They may check their work with an answer key located in a pocket on the board. Have the students expand this by comparing beans to miles or calculating how many beans equal a mile. SHOPPING CENTER TRIP The cost of living in Hawaii is much higher than it is in the contiguous United States because so many products much be shipped to the islands. The extra costs of shipping and handling, etc. are passed on to the consumer. For an activity center, assign a determined amount of money to the students ($1,000 for example). Provide a shopping list sheet with space to write a list of items they wish to purchase, the price of the item in Hawaii and the price of the item in the mainland. Provide various means of media from which the students may shop: catalogs, newspapers, sales flyers, toy cars with price tags, foods with price tags, dollhouse furniture with price tags, clothes with price tags, real estate listing, etc. The students will share their shopping list with the members of their group and include it in their Hawaiian Journal. HAWAIIAN PETROGLYPH Hawaiian Petroglyphs are found on the coastlines carved in stone and the lava fields. They are symbols and images that were used by the ancient Hawaiians for communication, protection, religious rites, etc. The majority of them represent men, women, children, animals, and spirits. For an activity center, have the students develop a system of petroglyphs and represent a sentence or phrase using the symbols. Provide different mediums for this activity: chalk and black paper construction paper, pipe cleaners, etc. RESEARCH CENTER Provide a table or designated area for resources. Have available books pertaining to the history of the Hawaiian Islands, volcanoes and the earth, travel guides, ictional and nonfictional literature, encyclopedias, maps, magazines, etc. The students will use this center to research their island for reporting to the class.
