I really liked this unit. I wish it could keep going. I was one of the experts who read
Understanding the Holy Land, and I really enjoyed the talk that Harris Zafar and Lee Gordon gave. I had a lot of fun with all the role plays, especially the one where the Israelis were on the inside of the tables and they moved around. I also really enjoyed
Habibi and
Promises. My character was Mahmoud. I am also pretty pro-Palestinian, so I agreed with many of his ideas. Overall, I thought this was the best unit in English this year by far.
These are pictures of Harris Zafar
and some Hand in Hand School School students.
I think this is good but how will they have peace in Palestine/Israel
ReplyDeleteI really liked this unit because we could express our feelings about world problems.

ReplyDeleteI also liked it when we went around the table and talked about peace. In my group, purple, I was Moishe and so was Jasper. We had a pretty heated and intense argument with yelling in character against Noah and Dan, playing Mahmoud.
ReplyDeleteI like how you put in pictures. I learned that pro-Palestinian means you favor the Palestinians.
