What is Our Responsibility ~ As Kamehameha Schools-Hawai&#8217;i students, As Hawaiians, and As Global-Citizens&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Our inquiry project began as wanting to know more about Hurricanes, as we solemnly watched with heavy hearts, as parts of our nation and our world were impacted by these destructive natural disasters. \u00a0We researched to collect information, we collaborated to share new knowledge with one another&#8230;all the while our essential question resonated deep in our na&#8217;au&#8230;What is Our Kuleana? \u00a0What can we do to k\u00f8kua (help)? Our class agreed that new knowledge and knowing was NOT enough, we needed to put it into action!<\/p>\n<p>The 5B team quickly mobilized to make a difference. \u00a0Small teams worked on posters to inform others in our school about Hurricanes, how to prepare &amp; be safe if a hurricane is imminent, how Hurricane Harvey has impacted our World, drew inspiration from how People were helping People and the nationwide fundraising efforts by many, and wondered how 5th graders with no paying jobs could help too!<\/p>\n<p>The team decided that we could share information with our individual Ohana (families) on how to make monetary donations to help, BUT together, we could send our message to the people of Texas&#8230;through mele (song). \u00a0This is an original mele created by students in 5B after much inquiry &amp; discussion on: What goes into a mele? How did our ancestors haku mele (composed songs) and why?, Who are the people of Texas? \u00a0What makes Texans unique? \u00a0What is the culture of Texas?&#8230;and finally, What is our collective message filled with our collaborative voices\/feelings did we want to send to everyone impacted by Hurricane Harvey.
