Description
Thirsty? You and every other organism on this planet! We all need water to live. Follow the path of the life-giving water of Kāne through the water cycle and see how water—and the lack of it—affects Hawaiian ecosystems and their inhabitants.
The ecosystem-themed set of three leveled readers and a Big Ideas Science Book is the fourth in a series of Hawaiian culture-based science readers called Pāhana ‘Āina Lupalupa (PAL). PAL integrates Hawaiian language, culture, and place-based content with literacy and science concepts that meet national standards. Developed in ‘ōlelo Hawai‘i and translated into English, this exciting series was created through partnerships among a group of Hawai‘i educators, literacy specialists, and Hawaiian-language resource developers in consultation with scientists and cultural practitioners.
