KĪPAPA Educator Resources:

Bilingual Resources Covering
Hawaii's History

Learn about key events, people and places in Hawaii’s history. In response to a need in our community for access to historical Hawaiian knowledge, Awaiaulu has assembled primary source documents, articles from the newspapers, and produced material to understand the detail of key events and key figures in Hawaiian history.

Awaiaulu have amassed nearly 1,000 documents in Hawaiian and English as part of the collection and created bi-lingual curriculum for grade bands K-3, 4-6, 7-8 & 9-12. You will find mele, books, indexes in English & Hawaiian, supplemental reading material and games.
