Did you know that one of the states of the United States are closer to Asia than it is to where we live? Which state do you think that might be? That’s right . . . HAWAII – Hawaii is part of the Pacific Islands, but is part of the United States!  Many of the traditions that are in Hawaii may not be celebrated the same in other states in the United States!

May is Asian American Pacific Islander Month!!  There are so many pieces to the Asian American Pacific Islander heritage that we may not know exactly where they come from, so let’s explore!

We are going to learn about a few important people who are a part of the Asian American Pacific Islands culture and some great foods from countries like Korea, China, and Hawaii!

Feel free to read any of the books that are in the Asian American Pacific Islander Library!
