Welina me ke aloha, ʻO au o Kumu Kawehi Kammerer. ʻO James Kammerer kuʻu kāne a noho pū māua ma ka moku o Koʻolauloa ma ke ahupuaʻa o Lāʻie. He ʻekolu a māua keikikāne. Nui koʻu aloha no koʻu moʻomēheu Hawaiʻi me ka hana nō ka hoʻoulu ana i ka lāhui Hawaiʻi. Na Poepoe i ʻōlelo, "Ua ʻoia mau nō ka pono o ka lāhui kanaka i ka naʻauao Hawaiʻi." He Hawaiʻi au mau a mau.

Ho'okai ua lawai'a i ke kaipapa'u. He i'a po'opa'a e ho'i ai.

Translation: A fisherman who fools around in shallow water take home po'opa'a fish.

Explanation: Said of one who prefers doing the easy instead of venturing into something harder and more profitable. The po'opa'a (hard-headed) fish is easily caught with a hook and line.

In addah words no moloa no settle for less. Choosing the easy route only gets manini kine reward or return...try new things...get out of your comfort zone and fish out in the deep and get one ulua no settle for da po'opa'a.

I loved the idea of incorporating student projects into a VoiceThread! This gives students such an amazing ownership of their work. Because their work is going to be showcased on the internet, this encourages students to put forth more pride and effort into their work knowing that many others will see it.

It would be great to create VoiceThreads that showcase student projects for specific activities that parents can view throughout the school year and make comments for their children to view. This would be a great way for student work to be validated!
