TEAM I’IWI

Here’s something for those of you working in K-12 education: a (CD & DVD) science based video & curriculum that encourages inquiry & brings actual field science to the classroom. The video shows various types of measurements done on one of the native forest birds (I’iwi) while the curriculum has appropriate grade level suggested classroom activity enabling students to experience & answer questions similar to what a researcher asks in his or her field research. This was a project done by graduate student Cathy Kuntz and was filmed at Hakalau Forest NWR with several Big Island teachers.

Included are both the curriculum for grades K-12 & the video.

Cost is only $6.00/set & includes mailing. If interested in purchasing this email us at friendsofhakalauforest@gmail.com Attn: Sunny LaPlante. Please include your mailing address & phone number so Sunny can contact you regarding details.

Thank you, Lorri Ellison

Friends of Hakalau Forest Water Tank Fundraiser

The Water Tank Fundraiser has been ongoing for a year now and it’s been encouraging and rewarding to see how many of you have donated. Thank you ever so much.

Where we are now: More than half way there! We are at $5,000 as of today 1/14/2010. I am hopeful we will continue to receive donations through 2010 and just maybe we can have that water tank up and full by this time next year.

Thank you again. Each and every donation is appreciated.

Mahalo Nui Loa,
Lorri Ellison, President
