Dear Parents,

Welcome to our Arabic World Language program. We would like to share with you our excitement and enthusiasm about teaching your child this year.

Program Overview:

We believe that all students have their own strengths and it is the role of the educator to discover those strengths and nurture them to help students attain success.
We are using a variety of instructional materials to support and enrich our teaching.
We use multiple strategies in this level. It is mostly based on conversations, role-playing letter recognition, daily words and expressions, and practicing real-life situations. This will enrich the students' knowledge of Arabic.

Home Learning and Connection:

We strongly believe that the success of all students is the result of partnership between the school and home. We would like to keep the channels of communication open between the parents and the Arabic classroom. We will post information on our blog at the beginning of each unit (approximately every 6 weeks). This will update you with the letters/topics used in class as well as some online links that will help our students practice the language independently at home.

We will occasionally post audio files in the blog for your child to listen to and practice their new vocabulary.

Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions.


Looking forward to a great, successful year with your child.
ES Arabic Department
