[Hawaiian Value]
Aloha, ʻo wau ʻo Iverson a eia Ka Waiwai Hawaiʻi o Ka Pule or the Hawaiian value of the week.
This weekʻs Waiwai Hawaiʻi is Laulima which means cooperation or working together.
Aloha, ʻo wau ʻo Aelani me ka haʻawina ʻaʻa no ka pule or challenge for the week. I challenge you to practice this value by working as a team, class, or even school. Working together gets things done faster so try your best to help out when working in groups. Things like giving ideas, taking initiative, or having a role in a project are good ways to cooperate with others.
aloha, ʻo wau ʻo Kainalu and I leave you with this ʻōlelo Noʻeau to keep in mind while you challenge yourself to practice this weekʻs Hawaiian value. (‘A’ohe hana nui ke alu ‘ia . Which means No task is too big when done together by all). Have a great week and donʻt forget to practice Laulima.
I lā maikaʻi!
