Arabic Culture Day

During the “Arabic Cultural Day,” Ms. Ismael's students held an after-school event to showcase their acquired Arabic language skills and promote the middle school's Arabic program to the school, teachers, and parents. The after-school event had eight cultural stations organized and run by the students. The attendees had opportunities to visit each station to learn about Arabic culture and tradition and to acquire vocabulary related to the specific station. The attendees explored a name-writing station; a hieroglyphs station; a welcome drink station with hibiscus, tamarind, and tea; and a Henna art station. Some stations had a game show with prizes, a shadow show, falafel wraps, and handmade crafts.
