Melanie Magidow and Laila Familiar have created a free Arabic teaching module. Here is the description: 

 

In this module, we investigate transnational social issues in the Arab World through literature and graphic art. These issues include: refugees and refugee camps, fleeing violence, immigration, cultural challenges for immigrants, studying abroad, and making choices about where and how to live one’s life. In this module, learners will: 

 

• Meet an artist who addresses social issues through comix

• Read a short story that contains big ideas

• Listen to a sung poem expressing solidarity with displaced people

• Learn about the perspectives of young people from refugee families

 

The module is available at http://khallina.org/across-borders/
