Monday Word of the Day…Antipode

Here’s a new word for Monday, ka’u i’a!  ANTIPODE…

Tweet from @HokulaeWWV

Take a “CLOSE” look at the infographic above, really observe!…What do you notice?  Ask yourself some question as inquiry is the first step in understanding 🙂  “Na maka hohonu”…use your deepest eyes!  Check out the tweet above and do some detective work by “diving deep” into learning!

What does this mean?  Why is Høküle’a crew tweeting about this?  Why is this important to know about?  Where in the world is the wa’a?  How far are they from us?  Does this connect to me in Hawai’i?  Does this word have any connection(s) to you?  Why would Mrs. Ah Hee share this word with us?  Share your mana’o on our new word by composing a definition (in your own words) AND your connections in a thoughtful, complete, revised, and edited paragraph, AFTER doing some research🙂  Now…write a question that “sparked” in your mind after doing this response, maybe the crew of the Høküle’a can help us with it!  Think we could “tweet” them for assistance? 🙂
