Grade 4: Ideas and Inventions
Inquiry: How can we use the carbon printing technique to reveal the fine structure of textured objects?
- Observe patterns made using the carbon printing technique
- Record data
- Compare fingerprints
- Sort patterns
- Invent new ways to use a technique
Grade 3: Water Wheels
Why is it important to learn about water?
Grade 6: Mälama i Ke Keiki Project
| Avery Nakata: |
| “We are learning about food sovereignty through the Mālama i ke keiki project. We are doing it so we know how to plant kalo so if the Matson ships/containers stop coming, we will still be able to thrive (foodwise) by planting kalo and other types of Native Hawaiian plants.” |

Grade 6: Aloha ‘Aina Wahi
Haumäna express pilihonua to their Aloha ‘Aina wahi. 
Kindergarten
We practice sharing our projects and then we shared our sun shade ideas with Uncle Mark and Uncle Bruce. They are Kamehameha carpenters. They came to find out our discoveries and share what they know about building things. They put together a shade for our playground. It can help us stay cooler when we are at recess. Mahalo Uncle Mark and Uncle Bruce! “We met real builders today!”
Grades 5 and 6
Haumäna are studying earth system science in our learning community. We are investigating how the geosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere and biosphere interact with each other in Hawai‘i and around the earth. The human impact of CO2 emissions into our earth systems is a contributing factor to global warming and ocean acidification. How can we all Mälama Honua and decrease our carbon dioxide production?

As we begin our year of adventures in science…here’s a great thought from the past..
‘O këia ‘u’uku e nui ana.
This smallness will be big later. M. Pukui
What does it mean to you? How can it help us think more about where we are and where we are going…and growing!

Papa ‘Epekema – What does it mean to be a Hawaiian scientist?
E komo mai!
For the 2017 – 2018 school year the kumus are:
Kinder – Grade 2: Bev Kutsunai /[email protected]
Grade 3 – Grade 4: Debbie Uwaine/[email protected]
Grade 5 – Grade 6: Joan Rohloff/[email protected]
One essential question we will be examining throughout the year is “What does it mean to be a Hawaiian scientist?”
Please share your mana‘o! We look forward to our journey in science education!
