  • S Aloha Spirit Begins on Oahu Island Hawaii Honolulu and Island of Oahu – Images by Lee Foster by Lee Foster
    Hawaii’s Aloha Spirit Begins on Oahu Island Hawaii Honolulu and Island of Oahu – Images by Lee Foster by Lee Foster When the plane touches down in Hawaii, the magic of the eight major Islands in the Hawaiian group begins to infuse the sensibility of a traveler. First of all, a traveler from North America has just made a long voyage, 2,000 miles and fully five hours from western U.S. cities, or longer from Chicago and New York. After traversing long stretches of ocean, the islands suddenly appear, as improbable as they must have seemed to the first Polynesians who sailed and paddled their canoes from the South Seas to this site about 750 A.D. or possibly earlier. From out of nowhere the modern visitor alights into a fully-realized dream, Hawaii. When you leave the airplane, a lei may be put around your neck, if you are on a tour. If not, you may want to buy a lei at the airport, just to get into the spirit. Leis are sometimes made of vanda orchids or of plumeria. The perfume of the lei and the warm tropical air of Hawaii immediately bathe a visitor. A range of bright flowers can be seen everywhere, starting with bougainvillea or hibiscus, the state flower, giving a technicolor aura to Hawaii. Brightly floral aloha shirts, which appear so ostentatious on the mainland, seem immediately appropriate here. Then you begin observing people in this airport. The most striking aspect of the people is that their racial origins are diverse and are primarily from the Orient.

(http://vimeo.com/hulapreservationsociety) Ø 1984 Pt 1 of 2 Ø 1984 Pt 2 of 2 BACKGROUND: In the 1980s, a series of 5 concerts were held to honor elders of that time who persevered in the 20th century & planted seeds for the Hawaiian Renaissance that began in the 1970s. Over five concerts, 67 kūpuna were recognized, & their names are the ones we recall hearing stories about, for their contributions have deeply enriched the sentience of Hawaiians & the people of Hawaiʻi. “Na Makua” was created & led by Dr. Ishmael Stagner, who was a professor at Brigham Young University-Hawaiʻi at the time. To download a scan of BYUʻs actual program from this year, visit https://www.papakilodatabase.com & search the Hula Preservation Society Collection.

HISTORY & GEOGRAPHY > Hawaii, Japan ARTS > Music, musical instruments EXPANDING THE CONCEPT OF LITERACY What is a “text”? We invite you to consider the performances on McCallum’s Field Trip Series as non-print texts available for study and investigation by your students. Anyone who has shown a filmed version of a play in their classroom, used a website as companion to a textbook, or asked students to do online research already knows that “texts” don’t begin and end with textbooks, novels, and reading packets. They extend to videos, websites, games, plays, concerts, dances, radio programs, and a number of other non-print texts that students and teachers engage with on a regular basis. We know that when we expand our definition of texts to the variety of media that we use in our everyday lives, we broaden the materials and concepts we have at our disposal in the classroom, increase student engagement, and enrich learning experiences. Please consider how utilizing your McCallum performance as a text might align to standards established for reading, writing, speaking, listening, and language. How do we help students to use these texts as a way of shaping ideas and understanding the world? Please use this material to help you on this journey.
