Just a short note to address a complaint about this week's drama:
One of the jokes we have in our class is based on our three Ahmeds. Sometimes we call them American Ahmed, Palestinian Ahmed and Chinese Ahmed.
In the drama Palestinian Ahmed is violent and mean. The real Palestinian Ahmed is not violent or mean. The same way that Zeina does not really drive a car and Sena is not marrying a bear.(I hope) We use students in the dramas because it makes the stories more entertaining to the students and they enjoy them more.
We are certainly not insulting Palestinians in any way. Any parents who took it that way should take another look with this in mind.
