Hawaiian Tiki Pole Writing Crafts for Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage

❤️Looking for a fun and creative way to celebrate Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month? Your students will love learning about Tiki poles and how they were used in Hawaiian cultures, while creating beautiful writing craft projects!

*NEW: Child size tiki pole craft added! (May 2024)

.....................................................................................................

✏️Use the informational guides to teach (social studies & history) about Tiki poles and how they were used in Polynesian cultures.

✏️Students can draw or choose from 8 Tiki faces to create their personalized Tiki pole based on traits that they, or their family members have. Works great as a social-emotional learning (SEL) activity!

✏️Writing crafts are differentiated! Students can color or decorate their craft, choose from a variety of writing prompts, and writing sheet options (dotted vs. single lines etc.)

✏️Create crafts using construction paper or paper towel rolls.

✏️Use the arts and craft writing projects to meaningfully decorate your bulletin board, classroom, or hallway, while displaying your students' creativity!
