Arabic Studies |
Sixth Grade |
Age group: 10-11 |
Main Focus: To begin formal Qur'an Arabic in an academic and thematic way. Prior levels emphasized more in the way of basic mechanics of pronunciation and simple dialogue. From here forward the actual comprehension of the meaning will be developed. Learning Abilities: Very good comprehension of instructions. Formats to Avoid: Do not structure the class into a lecture format with a lot of note-taking or pencil work. Do not make memorization of words the main focus of the instruction. Preferred Format: Oral drills coupled with practice exercises are a must. Grammar can be practiced in writing assignments and in dialogues.
