Jeunesse Sans Frontiere introduces Arabic for youth in the highly successful Al Habib Affas series. This modern curriculum will take non-speakers of Arabic on a journey of learning from the basics to a level equivalent with native speakers by consolidating and broadening their range of language skills. The classic Arabic language is presented clearly and inclusively to meet the needs of learners living in the west. The Al Habib Affas series consists of three systematic divisions: reading, conversation, and Arab culture.
Reading: Reading skills are developed by close examination of authentic reading passages and regular vocabulary exercises focused on word building techniques. The Al Habib Affas series includes classical Arabic excerpts without the distractions of spoken dialects.
Conversation: A careful balance of authentic and scripted listening materials builds conversational skills with native Arabic speakers.
Arab Culture: Al Habib Affas students are presented with Arabic and Western culture patterns to further understand the role of this timeless language.
Each section has specific objectives enabling the learner to generate language accurately in a variety of syntactical structures, ranging from typical exercises to practical conversations. This curriculum also develops fluency by communication, discovery, realization, and finally application. The Al Habib Affas series helps Arabic learners confidently deal with different types of writing, listening, reading, and spoken text. This series contains: textbook, workbook, and teacher guide.

When your child is ready to go to kindergarten, introduce him or her to the Qur'ān. The best way to do that is to begin teaching him or her the Arabic alphabet and vowel signs. After learning the alphabet, your child will be able to read, write and pronounce it correctly.
The Beginners Arabic Reading book is a step-by-step Guide to begin reading the Qur'ān. The book introduces the Arabic alphabets, gradually demonstating their beginnng, middle and end shapes and how these are used in Arabic words. The book covers all the essential vowel marks and shows the students how they are used in simple to complex Arabic words commonly found in the Qur'an. After finishing the book, a student is expected to be ready to begin reciting the Qur'an.
The purpose of this book is to introduce children to the time-tested methodologies of learning the Arabic alphabet. As the title of the book indicates, it is a step-by-step guide to start reading the Qur’ān. The materials are presented in a sequential manner to ensure that children learn the necessary tools to read Qur’ānic Arabic in the shortest possible time. The book has 29 lessons. Ideally, a Sunday school should cover each lesson in two Sundays, thus, taking about 58 classes, or two school year to fi nish the book. A full-time school or home schooling parents will require much less time to fi nish the book with their children.

The first part of Arabic Language Lessons for Non-Arabic Speakers is a book to teach the Arabic language, and it is concerned with grammar, morphology, vocabulary, and style. Teachers should keep these ideas in mind while explaining and should use the following steps:
Introduce the lesson without referencing the book.
Read the lesson, drawing students’ attention to the repetition of previous material, explaining new material, and asking students questions to ensure that they understood it.
Put students into groups.
Give students time to complete all of the oral exercises, and let them complete the same exercises in written format outside of class.

Hafiza Iffath Hasan
This book is a response to the demands made by students of Arabic language to transform teaching notes and methodologies into a textbook. The author, Iffath Hasan, is both a hafiza (one who has memorized the entire Qur'an) and an Arabic teacher who is now opening the door of Qur'anic comprehension to eager learners everywhere. IQRA' hopes beginners will find this book a helpful guide as she aspires to open the door to the message of the Divine revelation. Using only text from the Qur'an, it is doubly beneficial for students to learn not only the Arabic language but facilitate their study, memorization and understanding of the Qur'an. This is a supplementary book for the senior level student, college age or adult.
Features:
Arabic with English directions
Qur'anic themes
Modern methodology
Three units include:
Unit 1: Nouns, pronouns, prepositions and their characteristics
Unit 2: Verbs and their trilateral roots Basic sentence structure
Unit 3: Arabic verbs Derived verbs Sentence structure
This book represents an attempt to build the Arabic learner's communica-tive skills sequentially, in terms of vocabulary, grammar, and functional skills.

As the interest in studying Arabic has increased exponentially over the past decade, the needs of our students have evolved. Rather than learn¬ing Arabic for the purpose of reading sources for dissertation writing, most students coming to Arabic today wish to use their Arabic skills in order to obtain positions in the business world, in NGOs, and in government-related employment. Especially at state universities, the population of Arabic students is composed of undergraduates who are interested in the Arabic of everyday life: every time that our Arabic program has polled students on their goals for learning the language, the primary one had been speaking. However, historical¬ly, AFL teaching materials have lagged behind those of other languages in terms of leading the learner of Arabic from the more basic to the more advanced conversation skills, functions, and topics.
This book represents an attempt to build the Arabic learner's communica-tive skills sequentially, in terms of vocabulary, grammar, and functional skills. It introduces the student to basic topics that are easily accessible and frequently used in everyday conversation, providing in each lesson a dialogue; speaking, reading, and writing exercises; cultural information; and selections from Arabic magazines and websites. The book focuses on developing spoken MSA skills as a way to enable the beginning student to communicate with speakers across a variety of dialects.
We believe that this book presents an exciting new direction in Arabic language pedagogy in the United States. Our hope is that after using the book, Arabic instructors and students will find this to be the case. Best wishes for a smooth and enjoyable journey with the Arabic language!

Teaching language is a critical tool in communication and ultimately in the development of knowledge. In our quest to provide our customers with quality materials, we are pleased to offer the Learn Arabic series. It employs modern methods of teaching foreign language to successfully teach the Arabic language to students in K-12th grade. This series was founded upon the following three fundamentals of teaching languages presented in an Islamic context:
Elements: Sounds, letters, phrases, and pronunciation
Skills: Reading, writing, speaking, and listening
Linguistic Functions: Introduction, greetings, description, requests, and apologies.
Series Contents: The Learn Arabic series consists of textbooks, workbooks, and teacher’s manuals for levels K-12th grade. The textbooks aim to present basic elements of the Arabic language and their functions, while the activity books focus on enrichment material with special emphasis on writing. The teacher’s manuals offer tips on teaching Arabic efficiently with positive results.
Support Material: Teachers will be pleased with the full array of support materials available, such as a collection of audio records, posters, and cards. These books also include ideas for additional activities, such as chants, competitions, and linguistic plays. All of these materials will help to make each lesson exciting and active for students.
Student Textbook: The Student Textbooks are comprised of 24 units: 66 basic lessons of new material, plus an additional 6 units for revision. Each basic unit contains 4 lessons of new material, including dialog text, expressions, and vocabulary, and communication exercises. These units contain conversations, pronunciations and expressions, grammatical structures, listening, reading, thinking, writing, and extra activities, such as selections of Qur’an, hadeeth and nasheed; where the teacher books include a midterm and final test. Answer keys can be found in the teacher's manuals.
Activity Book: The activity book simply enhance the material found within the student textbooks. They mainly concentrate on writing skills with some review of verbal skills. Each contains many different activities which can be done at school or at home, such as coloring and painting pages; word matches; reading letters and sentences; writing words, letters, and numbers; and answering questions. Some of the activities should be completed at home with a parent to strengthen the relationship between home and school.
It's a valuable language tool for students of various nationalities.

Part one contains 10 lessons, which deal with daily life issues to
help students learn about Arab society and adapt to it.
Every lesson starts with a central text, which has been written in
a conversational style. The texts contain many dialogues in order
to train students and encourage them to use the language. Each
text is followed by a list of new words that appeared in the text as
well as other words related to the subject matter. This is followed
by comprehension questions and exercises that target different
skills. A conversation exercise is available at the end of every
lesson and requires the instructor to practice with the students on
using the terms learned in the lesson and previous ones to have
a conversation in Arabic. Instructors are advised to use pictures
where the content of the pictures contains answers to the questions
the instructor asks.
Some lessons contain Arab and Islamic cultural elements so that
students would learn aspects of Arab culture in addition to language.
The rules of grammar and conjugation appear in functional form in the
texts but little focus has been made on them or their details because I
believe that language is learned through practice first and not simply
through learning rules of grammar without a functional dimension.
The purpose of the grammar presentation in the book is to teach students the major patterns of simple Arabic sentences without burdening them with the rules of conjugation at this early level. It is more important now for students to learn how to arrange words into a correct sentence.
also the book briefly mentioned some constructs to be dealt with in
more detail in subsequent levels. My focus in this level was mainlyon building the linguistic skills needed for daily use because that
would be of more benefit to students than simply explaining rules
of grammars that students might have difficulty retaining. Students
at the beginner level find no practical use to memorizing rules of
grammar.
The grammar sections in this level focused mainly on
the conjugation of verbs with separate pronouns because verbs are
the spine of the Arabic language. The book’s lessons also focus on
the basic rules of formulating a grammatically-correct sentence that
would be combined into a grammatically-correct paragraphs and
texts.
The purpose is ultimately to familiarize students with the basic
rules of grammar and conjugation.
The book contains four appendixes:
Appendix 1 & 2:
they contains a glossary of words used in
the texts and exercises of the lessons. The words are organized
in the order in which they appear in the text – not in alphabetical
order so as to be easy to follow for students. I thought of
translating the glossary into several languages in addition to
English (as I did with the first edition six years ago). I was
surprised and delighted when my students rushed to the task.
The glossary was thus translated into major global languages:
English, French, Spanish, Russian, and Chinese, as well as
into Japanese and Korean. The translation was proofread by
advanced Arabic language students who were native speakers
of the languages they revised.
Appendix 3:
It contains the conjugation of verbs in three
tenses (past, present, and imperative) with separate pronouns.
Most of the verbs were mentioned in the lessons while therest were selected because they are related closely to daily
activities. The purpose is to build up students’ lexicon, give
them the confidence to use the language and encourage them
to continue studying it (which is the primary purpose in my
opinion).
Appendix 4:
This appendix is dedicated to singular and
plural forms. It contains the singular and plural forms of nouns
mentioned in the lessons. The reason I dedicated an appendix
to plural forms is the absence of a rule that students can use
to form irregular plurals, which are common and heavily-used
in Arabic. Foreign students – even at advanced stages – have
difficulty forming irregular plural nouns.
Appendix 5:
A general introduction to the Islamic and
Gregorian calendars as well as brief profiles of Arab countries,
including capitals and currencies.
Appendix 6:
Political map of the Arab world including the
capitals and important cities.
Appendix 7:
Contains the singular and plural forms of the
human body parts, which were mentioned previously.
Appendix 8:
List Arabic grammar Vocabularies along with
English translation.
Appendix 9:
The English translations of all the questions in
this book along with the page number they are located in.
The enclosed Audio CD contains:
A slow and clear audio recording of the alphabet with adequate translation in
English.
The main lessons are recorded clearly. The last mark has been deliberately
ignored in most cases when reading the lessons so it will not confuse the students
and disturb their minds with long and short vowels, tanween mark and noon and
al-fateh tanween and the dual.
“Tanween” mark is pronounced on some words, even though it is not written
on those words for linguistic reasons.
The instructions at the beginning of each exercise are translated in English.
The questions and answers to the “Test Your Knowledge” section are recorded.
Translations of the newly introduced vocabulary words are offered at the end of
each lesson.
Simple linguistic rules and grammar explanations have been included
throughout the book to equip readers with a better understanding of the language.
