About This Activity
Nanna Maha's Arabic Storytime Club description: In this club, I aim to introduce Arabic through a delightful array of activities that foster vocabulary growth in an enjoyable manner. The first stage will be familiarizing the students with the Arabic language. Through singing, storytelling, crafting, and playing, children are immersed in the language, cultivating a positive bond with Arabic as they learn. Moving on to second stage, the focus shifts to more formal literacy. While continuing to expand their vocabulary, students are introduced to the Arabic alphabet, exploring letter shapes, forms, and sounds in an environment that encourages practice. Bio: Mai is a writer and educator with a Bachelor's degree in Marketing & International Business from the Arab Academy for Science and Technology in Cairo, Egypt. She possesses seven years of valuable experience working with both youth and adults in both formal and informal settings. Prior to relocating to the U.S., Mai was actively involved in designing and executing development and capacity-building training programs for student organizations, NGOs, and corporations. Presently, she is pursuing a PhD as a dual-title candidate in Adult Education and Lifelong Learning, as well as Comparative International Education at Pennsylvania State University.
