ACHF Arts Education
Ninety percent of participating students develop theater and film skills and strengthen their Arabic language skills. Teaching artists will do an oral evaluation at the end of each session in the form of ?rose and thorn???rose? something they enjoyed or felt successful at and ?thorn? something they struggled with or didn't enjoy. Teaching artists will also recap with students what new words in Arabic they learned that day. Students and parents will be given a brief evaluation form on the final day of the program. The questions will be developed with the Mizna staff and teaching artists.
We successfully held a COVID-safe, bilingual camp for middle schoolers. Led by performing artists Taous Khazem and Mohamed Yabdri, children strengthened their Arabic language skills as well as their performance skills while writing and acting in a short film, "The Recipe." The film will screen at Mizna's upcoming Arab Film Fest.
