RE:    S.C.R. No. 21

 

 

 

Honorable Colleen Hanabusa

President of the Senate

Twenty-Fifth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2010

State of Hawaii

 

Madam:

 

     Your Committee on Education and Housing, to which was referred S.C.R. No. 21 entitled:

 

"SENATE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION REQUESTING PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SCHOOLS TO INCORPORATE MORE KINESTHETIC AND OTHER TYPES OF LEARNING INTO SCHOOL CURRICULA,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this measure is to request public and private schools to incorporate more kinesthetic and other types of learning into school curricula.

 

     Your Committee finds that students respond in varying degrees to different styles of learning.  This measure will improve student learning outcomes by encouraging Hawaii's schools to offer a greater variety of learning opportunities to take advantage of the unique learning methods of Hawaii's children.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Education and Housing that is attached to this report, your Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of S.C.R. No. 21 and recommends its adoption.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Education and Housing,
