1 On a WorldStrides science action adventure program, students experience science like they never have before, as they visit some of the most educational and exciting destinations Hawaii has to offer. WorldStrides educational activities support, at minimum, various Next Generation Science standards for students at the 6-12 level. Most importantly, our hands-on approach focuses on developing students understanding of inquiry-based science through investigation and experimentation. Please note that standards selected for grades 9-12 also incorporate standards selected for grade 6-8 in addition to application of greater depth and breadth of standards appropriate to a high school science curriculum. Program content for grades 6-8 may also draw from standards for grades 9-12, with appropriate adjustment for learning objectives and level. Activity Orientation in Kona, Hawaii Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Description of Activity Students participate in a team-building exercise and learn about the geological and evolutionary history of Hawaiian environments, food mile calculations and production, and cultural atmosphere as they travel to one of the country s most diverse regions. Kilauea Visitor Center to become acquainted with the geological function and history of the Hawaiian archipelago and its multiple active volcanoes. Students observe large scale geoscience processes Standards Grades 6-8 Grades 9-12 evidence MS-LS1-4. Use argument based on empirical evidence and scientific reasoning to support an explanation for how characteristic animal behaviors and specialized plant structures affect the probability of successful reproduction of animals and plants respectively. MS HS-ESS1-6. Apply scientific reasoning and evidence from ancient Earth materials, meteorites, and other planetary surfaces to construct an account of Earth s formation and early history. HS-ESS2-2. Analyze geoscience data to make the claim that one change to Earth's surface can create feedbacks that cause changes to other Earth 1

Construct a scientific evidence for the role of photosynthesis in the cycling of matter and flow of energy into and out of organisms. surface HS-LS2-8. Evaluate the evidence for the role of group behavior on individual and species chances to survive and reproduce. Macadamia Nut Factory Tour form and function of agriculture influenced by volcanoes and demand for goods. Students delve into non-native species, agriculture and tourism in Hawaii and their relationship to environmental preservation efforts. MS-ESS3-3. Apply scientific principles to design a method for monitoring and minimizing a human impact on the environment. HS-ESS3-2. Evaluate competing design solutions for developing, managing, and utilizing energy and mineral resources based on costbenefit ratios. 2
3 Halema uma u Crater Kilauea Iki Crater Hike On a night hike, students discover an underground lava lake 3000 feet in diameter and 200 feet deep, located on the summit of Mount Kilauea. Students discuss/analyze the quality of volcanic lake water in order to compare the results with water in other locations. They discuss the relationship of geological and water processes in relation to volcanic activity as they stand in awe of the legendary home of Pele, the Hawaiian Volcano goddess. They further observe the constellations of the Hawaiian night sky, free of light pollution. area s lush rainforest ecosystem and learn how a variety of environmental factors contribute to an extremely high level of biodiversity. Students conduct observations and gather data as they hike through one of the most efficient nutrient cycle on the planet. They witness various plants and animals up-close as they travel on foot through the forest. Students analyze the geological principles at work beneath the crater s solidified lava lake and active steam vents. evidence MS-ESS2-4. Develop a model to describe the cycling of water through Earth's systems driven by energy from the sun and the force of gravity. scientific uneven MS-LS1-7. Develop a model to describe how food is rearranged through chemical reactions forming new molecules that support growth and/or release energy as this matter moves through an organism. HS-ESS3-4. Evaluate or refine a technological solution that reduces impacts of human activities on natural surface HS-LS4-2. Construct an evidence that the process of evolution primarily results from four factors: (1) the potential for a species to increase in number, (2) the heritable genetic variation of individuals in a species due to mutation and sexual reproduction, (3) competition for limited resources, and (4) the proliferation of those organisms that are better able to survive and reproduce in the environment. HS-LS4-4. Construct an evidence for how natural selection leads to adaptation of populations. 3

They further explore the functions of and the challenges facing Hawaii s unique beach Students board a catamaran for a cruise to Kealakekua Bay, a Marine Life Conservation District. They snorkel to observe and identify such organisms as vibrant coral, tropical fish, and spinner dolphins. Students practice formal scientific observation, recording, and analysis techniques. They further explore preservation efforts in Hawaiian marine habitats. MS-LS2-2. Construct an explanation that predicts patterns of interactions among organisms across multiple HS-LS2-8. Evaluate the evidence for the role of group behavior on individual and species chances to survive and reproduce. HS-ESS3-2.

Lu au and Polynesian Show Students enjoy the opportunity to exercise developing cultural competence as they experience one of the celebrated centerpieces of Hawaiian history and culture: the Lu au. They practice ukulele, hula dancing, and discuss to analyze the local legends and the powerful connection of the Hawaiian people to the land and ocean. Rainbow Falls Picture Stop Students observe world-famous Rainbow Falls, an awe-inspiring natural feature reaching 80 feet tall and 100 feet wide. They explore waterfalls in the context of ecotourism with relation to environmental preservation and the effects of human impacts on waterfallrich rainforest scientific uneven MS-LS4-4.
