El Education: I Like the Color

This children's book was created by students, grades 4-12, in an after-school program at the Kanu o ka 'Aina Charter School in Hawaii as a way to introduce younger students to colors as part of an extensive and ongoing effort to create culturally relevant bilingual curriculum materials for Hawaiian students. The creation of curriculum materials is part of a larger effort to reintroduce Hawaiian students to native culture and language - helping them to reclaim traditional language before it is lost.
