Qatari Culture
Qatari culture should be integrated into schools to create a relevant and respectful learning environment. This involves incorporating local history, customs, and values into the curriculum to foster identity and belonging. Activities such as Qatari storytelling that highlight and teach heritage, discussions on traditional crafts, and local geography exploration can meaningfully engage students. Additionally, integrating Arabic with English enhances communication skills and cultural ties. By prioritizing culturally responsive teaching, educators can inspire students to embrace their roots while fostering a global perspective.
