Club de lectura árabe para lectores principiantes (¡Leer! ¡Escribir! ¡Discutir!)

▬▬▬▬▬▬  ⭐Course Overview⭐ ▬▬▬▬▬▬
This ongoing class focuses on developing the reading skills of non-native Arabic speakers  in the Arabic language. These are learners who have a basic vocabulary foundation and can read simple sentences in Arabic. The course is designed for students who can recognize all Arabic letters, forms and vowels. In each class, students will have the opportunity to read stories from Levels A, B and C of the Reading A-Z series, featuring adventures of children, animals, and other fictional and non-fictional characters exploring various everyday topics. The class will be taught in both English and Modern Standard Arabic.

Throughout the course, students will improve their vocabulary and comprehension skills while also enhancing their ability to self-correct their reading mistakes. The course will cover topics such as family, home, school, the park, the zoo, friends, pets, and the store. Each class will involve letter activities, vocabulary review, story reading, comprehension, and writing. Students will interact with their classmates and instructor continuously through talking, writing, reading, and completing activities on the slides.

Students are welcome to join and leave at any time, as there is no previous information needed in order to succeed in the current week’s lesson. If you’d like to know exactly what week we are in (and that week’s topic), please send us a message to inquire.
