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.

[ Check rates for Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort ] We loved the Waikiki Marriott, granted we stay in marriotts most everywhere we go because we've always been very pleased with them but this hotel was especially nice. Concerige was amazing and gave us great directions to our Luau on the other side of the island and to Pearl harbor. She gave us a ton of really good insider information and saved us a lot of money on different events and souveniers. The lobby is open air as most in Hawaii are and it is spacious and absolutely gorgeous. The flower arrangements were divine!! You have never seen anything like them. We had a double balcony and had views of both the mountain (which looks almost magical at night) and the beach. It was very spacious and you could sink into the beds and stay all day if there wasn't so much to do. Great room service. The decor is so tropical and modern. The room had the most beautiful drapes and sheets. Yellow usually isn't a color I would like but they found a beautiful pattern that was pure Hawaii. The decor throughout the hotel was just as true to the tropical spirit. I have to mention once more the gorgeous floral arrangments! The architechture is also really modern and open.

[ Check rates for Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort ] by janiac This hotel was very nice and fit our needs. The rooms were quite large. We didn't add a cot to our two doubles, but one could have easily fit. We had an ocean view and a nice balcony to enjoy evenings on. I actually enjoyed quite a few nights eating breakfast or snacks there that I had stored in my fridge. The music from the hotel next door could be nice at times, annoying at night when I was trying to sleep. Although, I was usually so tired, it didn't matter how loud it sounded. Pluses: Hotel has a lot of things onsite -- two ABC stores for basic needs, restaurants and stores, plus two concierge desks located in different parts of the hotel with usually two concierges working both desks (meaning four total), and a very nice spa. Drawbacks: the pools were smallish for a resort. . Elevators were very slow (partly because all 400 girls and parents had to be places at certain times or tried to go back to their rooms at the same time) I don't know how much my room was because it was part of the package deal we got through AACD Location is great if you don't want to be situated in the middle of the wackiness of Waikiki. It's situated on the far end of the strip so it's quieter, but close enough to easily walk everywhere. There is a small beach area with a protective breakwall (almost a completely walled in beach area), so it's safe, but not as pretty as a natural ocean. There are fish in here, and the girls and I brought bread down and fed them (looked like a piranha frenzy after awhile). Theme: Hotel Directions: near the zoo, directly across the street from the beach Map: Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort See all Honolulu Tips Write your own Honolulu Hotels and Accommodations Review Ask the VT Community about Honolulu Leave a Comment Write to this Tip Author Tell a Friend Add to your Do-It-Yourself Travel Guide Rate Not Helpful 1 2 3 4 5 Very Helpful Tip Rating: Satisfaction: Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort: Review by a OneTime.com User from Chicago Written on January 29, 2005. [ Check rates for Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort ] My family of 4 was there from 1/25 until 1/27- 2 nights. Location was outstanding. Directly across the street is the ocean. We had a Corner Deluxe room 2232. Saw beautiful sunsets from our window. The room only had 1 balcony, but the window facing the ocean was breathtaking. (Though it really would have been that much nicer had it been a balcony, too.) The room was clean and large. The service in the hotel was decent. We ate for breakfast at Kuhio Grill, the buffet. My hubby and our sons (11 and 10) all loved it. Good selection. Dinner was room service one night, again very good, and other night was at D.K. Steakhouse which is in conjuntion with Sansei Sushi. Same owner. D.K. Steakhouse was extremely overpriced. EXTREMELY. My hubby's steak was fair, and overcooked. My shrimp in garlic was fair. Our appetizers were the Monster Shrimp cocktail, you get 3, but they were HUGE and I got the escargot. The escargot was just okay, and I love escargot. Our bill was $250 with tip for 2 adults and 2 kids. Both of our boys ordered lobster tails (about 7 oz each) for $40 each. The thing that sucks is that for the prices that they charge NOTHING comes with the dinners. Everything else is ala carte. Ridiculous. The lighting is VERY VERY poor, too. We will not return there. Service was friendly, but for those prices these had better be. MUST SEE is the beach of Lanikai! Lanikai Beach is what we saw on the Travel Channel. They named it the #1 beach on all of Hawaii. So, since we were on Oahu, and we were not that impressed with Waikiki, we decided to try to find this tucked away gem. It is all that and the bag of chips. Lanikai is about 1/2 hour away from the hotel. Get a map, though, as it is really tucked away. So, Marriott is fine, great location, no doubt, too. Would definitely stay there again. Oh, and their pool is a joke, as I had read on other boards. heard from my sons that the water is like ICE. Hit the beach, avoid the pool. last visit on January, 2005.

Written on May 30, 2004. [ Check rates for Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort ] Great features and a great location at a decent price for Waikiki! We stayed in the Paoakalani Tower which is the newer of the two towers and had a nice view of Diamond Head and the ocean. The Marriott complex occupies an entire block at the east end of the Waikiki strip with the beach right across the street. It is also within walking distance of most all of the shopping, dining and night life Waikiki has to offer. We really enjoyed the various street performers that come out at twilight to earn your tips. Parking is expensive, but unless youre part of a tour group youll want to rent a car (Hertz has an office & cars at the Marriott) to get out and explore the island beyond Honolulu. The traffic was congested as reputed, but nowhere near as bad as driving on the LA or NY freeways. Theres easy access via Kapahulu Street to Interstate H1 to drive over to Pearl Harbor and the North Shore, plus there are also some scenic drives we made on Highways 61 & 63 through the mountains northeast of Honolulu. The hotel lobby has a beautiful open-air atrium complete with waterfalls and there is a convenience store and a coffee shop adjoining it. There are also other stores in a mini-mall plus three good restaurants in the complex. The staff was friendly, helpful, and tri-lingual since several major Japanese travel agencies book tours groups at this hotel. Service was excellent and we loved the tropical dcor in our room. We will definitely stay there again!
