What an awesome field trip.  Mahalo nui to Manu Boyd and staff, Wally Amos and staff, Justin and all the Apple store crew !  The students learned so much on this field trip about Hawaiian culture, technology, and about life and being positive.  As far as field trips go, this one had it all!  Students, please take some time to respond to this blog and share your thoughts and appreciation to our hosts at Helumoa.  Please be sure to mention specific things you learned or liked about the visit.

Parental review of your KMT Binder:  Due Tuesday, March 10, 2009

Aloha Students and Parents,
We have been working on our yearlong project, the Kamehameha Math Trail Project and are nearing completion.  I am asking for parents to review the binder by March 10.  Many eyes looking over the paragraphs will help with the overall project.  Thank you in advance for helping with proof reading and making suggestion for improvement.  Mahalo for your continued support of this project.  Since I only introduced this today, please know that students are currently in the process of putting the binder together.  Please feel free to email me with any questions or concerns.
Aloha,
Kumu Terai
