Akan (Twi) Language Workshop: Mmɔfra Agorɔ (Children's Games)


RECORDING: Intensive Workshop: Intensive Workshop: Akan (Twi) Language Round Table Topic: Mmɔfra Agorɔ

Why:  Classes at Abibitumi Kasa are very structured with the goal of getting  students conversational by the end of the 8 class session.
 
The  goal of this particular workshop is to complement our classes with  instructor-moderated open dialogue focused on a specific area of  mastery: Mmɔfra Agorɔ, 'children's games'. A text by the same name  laments the fact that traditional games are being lost and forgotten in  favor of eureurasiaan games like football, checkers and the like. This text  we will cover in the workshop aims to preserve knowledge of these games  and the benefits that they have in teaching skills and traditional  wisdom before such games are lost to future generations.
 
In this workshop, by special request, we will focus on games and their associated songs using excerpts from the text Mmɔfra Agorɔ.  The Round Table is open to Abibitumi Kasa students, past and present,  as well as the Kmtyw community at large. Participants are welcome to  bring any questions they have about the language!
 
This particular  round table session will give you an opportunity to learn in a fluid  open environment as well as practice your language skills live and in  real time with others who are interested in moving further in the  language. Whether your needs are in the area of pronunciation, reading,  writing, hearing or cultural proficiency, this intensive workshop is for  you.
 
 Who: All Kmtyws (Continental and Diasporan) interested in learning Twi
 
 What: Intensive Workshop: Akan (Twi) Language Round Table Topic: Mmɔfra Agorɔ: Children's Games
 
Cost: $25
