Kan Yama Kan: Storytime with Ms. Dina
February 22, 10 AM - 11:30 AM
310 W Master St
Join . For our second gathering, we will read the story بطريق أضاع الطريق (Batriq ada3a altariq; A penguin lost his way) by Palestinian Kuwaiti author Hooda Shawa Qaddumi. The story chronicles the journey of a penguin displaced by climate change as he roams the world in search for home.
First, Ms. Dina will read the story in Arabic, with consecutive English translation. Then, together, we will revisit key terms from the story while practicing the Arabic alphabets. For example: ش for شوكة and ز for زيتون. Finally, together we will discuss the lessons the kids draw from the story.
Tickets are $5! If you or your child are in one of our Arabic Language classes, email arabic@albustanseeds.org to get free tickets!
