Muna.. a math teacher and artist
Mona Al-Sabah says about herself: I am like any mother who loves to take care of her children and her home, and they are always on top of my priorities, and although I initially entered the Faculty of Fine Arts at An-Najah University and graduated from it in 2004, and despite my love of plastic drawing and portraiture, I and my strong love for mathematics decided Studying, I joined and graduated from Al-Quds Open University, and I work as a mathematics teacher.
And she adds: But my hobbies are multiple, because I generally consider myself an aficionado of arts, agriculture, and mathematics, and a lover of Palestinian heritage, and I always strive to highlight and develop it in the ways available to me.
Mona indicates her great love for interviews with the elderly to draw inspiration from their past, and she prepares videos about them and publishes them through social media (social media) to take lessons and lessons from them, as she always tries to highlight the Palestinian heritage in her paintings, so she paints everything that represents the city of Jaffa and its old town And Jerusalem, and seeks through its brush to highlight Palestinian embroidery and traditional tools as well, seeking to preserve this heritage from extinction and loss, and so that it remains inherited for future generations.
As for being a teacher of mathematics, Mona smiles and continues her speech: I always try to form a model of correct academic education in teaching this subject, so that children consider it difficult for them.
Hydroponics experience.
When asked about her idea and her experience in the field of hydroponics on the roof of her house, especially since this type of agriculture was only practiced by a few in the West Bank, although it aims to produce various organic plants, reduce water consumption and provide self-sufficiency, Mona says: By nature, I love agriculture and am passionate about it, and I grow many types of flowers and some simple vegetables on the balcony of my house. As for hydroponics, I got to know it through social networking sites, and I deepened reading about it and looking at a lot of materials related to it, and I watched many videos about it, and I was impressed So much with her idea, that I started asking and inquiring through agricultural engineers and specialists in this field.
Mona goes on to say about hydroponics itself: This type of agriculture helps to reduce the problem of water scarcity, as it is economical in terms of its consumption of water and fertilizers, and technology is included in its system and organic crops are produced. The “hydroponic” method relies on planting plant seeds or “seedlings” in A nutrient water solution that contains the main elements needed by the plant, ranging from 12 to 16 elements, or growing the plant in an “inert” solid material, so that it does not interact with the plant’s nutrient solution. In this way, it is dispensed with the need to resort to the use of chemical fertilizers, of which the surplus of the plant's need in traditional agriculture usually leaks into the soil. Also, hydroponics protects the plant from pests that may attack it from the soil, as is the case in traditional agriculture, and in light of the Corona pandemic, my conviction has increased that the need has become urgent for the production and consumption of organic crops, as most of our food is unhealthy, and it is marketed to us for a commercial purpose, and contains in It contains a lot of hormones and chemicals.
