The cards or slides in this pages can be used for evaluation and also can be used to practise :
- Listening: by using a screen or a data projector, the teacher can hide the Arabic script and read the sentence and the 3 distractors to the students and ask them to choose the answer. The teacher here can use classroom language in Arabic to elaborate suing expressions such as: “ما رأيك؟” ” هل هذه الإجابة مناسبة؟” to motivate and encourage students to speak up and thus, the activity becomes a speaking one, too.
- Reading for speaking: The teacher can ask the students to read the sentence and the 3 distractors and try to find the answer. The teacher can elaborate and ask the students questions about other images in the quiz emphasising the “What” and “Where” to get the students using the same sentence structure to describe other images. Here some new items of vocabulary can be introduced by asking the students to guess the meaning of other items of vocabulary and why they choose their answers.
- Reading for writing: The teacher can ask the students to read the sentence and try to find the answer and write description of the other images using the same sentence structure. Once the students have grasped the meaning of words, the structure of the sentence, the teacher can ask them to work in pairs asking each other using “Where?” and “What?”. Here the teacher can conceal the Arabic script and ask the students to use different names of the subject of each sentence writing sentences about ‘family members’, for instance.
These cards/slides can be used by Arab parents who want to help their children maintain or develop their Arabic in a non-Arabic speaking country.
