1001 Nights Program

by Teach For Lebanon - Mar 15,2021
The program is an academic curriculum composed of 36 lessons used in formal and informal learning environments to teach civic and peace education as well as life skills. The program is based upon the award-winning animated television series 1001 Nights which airs in over 70 countries engaging over 100 million children per year on premier television networks like Disney, Cartoon Network, Al Jazeera Children’s Channel and Discovery Kids. Each animated episode is designed to teach a different civic value including honesty, integrity, tolerance, empathy, gender equality etc…
TFL aims to implement the program in the schools we work in and train teachers in public schools on using this program (target: 150 schools).

Since the start of November 2020, TFL has been providing teachers with the training and tools necessary for a successful implementation of the program. 19 TFL fellows are responsible for training their teacher colleagues, while 14 fellows are responsible for supporting, observing, and assisting teachers as they administer the program. As of March 2021, we have been conducting pilot sessions in a number of TFL partner schools, with the aim of evaluating the preparedness of the tutors and the feasibility of implementing this program online. This marks an important milestone toward the full-scale launch of the 1001 Nights program.
