Ms. Sayed Arabic Class
To Tarbiyah Academy's 3rd and 4th Grade Family,
As Salaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakaatuhu,
Welcome back! Whether you spent your time relaxing, studying, working, or on a trip, I hope you had an enjoyable spring break.
We had a great first two terms and we look forward to an exciting more term to go!
Also, I want to send a sincere thank you to all of you who came out to parent-teacher-student conferences. InshaAllah you all enjoyed listening to your child reflect on all the beautiful work in their portfolios!
“Should we Learn Arabic”or “ Should we NOT Learn Arabic”?
Students prepared a visual presentation using data collected from our class discussion, and their research to convince people “ Why we should Learn Arabic” or “ Why we should NOT Learn Arabic”

What's Happening in Arabic class
Dedication is the key to succeeding at anything. To Learn the Arabic language, you have to learn how to read it, write it, understand it and speak it. That's what we are working on in the classroom. We read stories, we learn new vocabularies, we write summaries of the stories and we do dialogues in Arabic. We learn how to write stories and use our own voices as writers ( according to the different levels).

Listening is an important part of learning. It is more productive that they listen to something they already know. Please let your child listen to these videos everyday.
