Mohammad Hasher woke up to find his sister, Noor, sitting on the couch in a party dress looking upset. She explained there was a Father-Daughter dance at school that night. Noor and Mohammad's Dad was absent so she couldn't go, but she wanted to wear her dress anyway.
Mohammad took his sister to a salon to get her hair done and went out to buy new shoes and a dress. He took his sister the dance that night and during the evening the big brother was voted for and won "Best Dad" award.
Mohammad said, "It filled my heart with happiness seeing her dance with so much joy and have fun with all her friends." He later tweeted, "Sorry you don't have a Dad but I will always be there for you"
What do you see in the picture?
What do you think is happening?
explain the story?
- Why was Noor upset?
- A Father-Daughter dance sounds nice but who does that exclude?
- What would be a better title for the dance so that people weren't excluded?
- This story shows us there are lots of different families. Some people might say Mohammad should not have taken Noor to the dance. What do you think?
- Mohammad won "Best Dad" award - what does that show about attitudes towards different families among the people at the dance.
- What can we learn from the people at that dance?
- Should the school change their Father-Daughter dances in the future?
- Why is this story about No Outsiders?
