Mrs. Kato's Class Goes to the Hilton Waikoloa

Mrs. Kato's class went to the Hilton Waikoloa on Friday, February 1st. They went to participate in the Splash Class from Dolphin Quest which is usually a one day trip. Due to the generosity of the Delima family, they were able to spend the night in a suite...What an opportunity! The students got to make smores, watch a movie, go swimming, and venture out on the grounds to explore petroglyphs. I was looking forward to going myself, but Hollywood came up and I had my own adventure going to California for the America's Choice Conference. The students were lucky to have Mrs. Kato, Ms. Kanoa, Aunty Bev & Uncle Howard, Mrs. Kawasaka, and the Delima family to chaperone them on this fabulous trip.

This slideshow was created for the students so that they could look back and remember all that they got to do. They sure did enjoy it, asking to watch it again and again. They even requested that it be watched every Friday :-) The clip starts out with the whole 5th grade celebrating the end of the second quarter at the YWCA. Students that got to go swimming had to be sure to complete their Read to Succeed goals for the quarter AND complete independent written responses to books read. They worked hard and deserved it!
