Arabic Language Department

Dear parents

The second term was full of many distinguished achievements of our students, and these achievements varied with the variety of events we celebrate in our school, such as the International Mother Language Day, and the Isra’ and Mi’raj (the Prophet’s Night Journey). In addition, we had many meetings with our dear parents who visited us on several occasions to have a look at the activities our students enjoyed in the elementary school. Parents also had the opportunity of playing and enjoying educational games with their children, and all these activities showed the passion and love of our students for the Arabic language.

In this issue, we present to you part of these activities.

Open Day for Parents of Students in Grades 1-5

We are always working to enhance the cooperation between home and school, and we consider parents as partners in the educational and social upbringing of our children Therefore, it was essential to invite them to our Open Day which was held in the Early Childhood Department (Grade 1), to participate in educational activities with their children and to introduce them to what the school day

is all about.

The presence of many parents was a wonderful thing to see, as they learned about what their children are learning in the basics of reading and writing, and shared exciting and interesting puzzles with them. We thank those who contributed with us in making this day a success, and we are looking forward to many more future meetings like this.

Parents play an integral role in supporting their children through their cooperation and communication with the school, in a way that guarantees the expansion of their participation in the educational process which will ultimately benefit the students. The school, along with the home, contribute to the success of the educational process in a way that guarantees the success of students, and this can only be achieved through strengthening the ties between both parties. Thus, the Sheikh Zayed Private Academy for Girls organized the Open Day Event. We were honored to have parents of students in grades 2-5 participate with their daughters in fun and interesting educational activities and see what they had accomplished during the second term.

100 Days of School

Celebrating 100 days of School with grade 1 students was an opportunity to stimulate creativity and innovation, as they were able to create artistic projects, designs, and interactive activities to share with their classmates. They were also encouraged to think differently and learn in a fun and different way.

“Arabi” Program

Learning the Arabic language at a young age is easy for children as it can be engraved in their memory and learning the Arabic language with its broad areas is one of our top priorities in the Early Childhood Department, where language topics are presented through several activities and events that encourage our students to read, write, and talk. Through comparison, classification, and matching, our students are able to master the topics presented to them. The “Arabi” Program is based on enhancing all the Arabic language skills, and we constantly strive to provide everything that meets the levels and needs of our students so that they can be proficient students who are proud of their mother tongue.

Applying Technology through Using the Green Screen

Being an Apple Distinguished School, we use various strategies in Arabic language classes in which students feel independent and are the main focus of the educational process, including the use of the green screen, and linking it to Arabic lessons and learning outcomes.
