Our kids have spent the summer learning spoken Arabic from this very sweet (and patient) woman at our language center. They learn written Arabic from another sweet lady who tutors them. They have one more month until school starts and then the boys will be in Arabic school all day long.
Learning new names for body parts.
A page out of a math book. The numbers are different. Here we use Hindi numbers, while in America we use Arabic numbers. Go figure!!! To make matters more difficult, the written words (formal Arabic, Fusha) for most items are completely different than the spoken words (local dialect). So the children actually need to learn 2 new languages for school this year(one for the classroom and one for the playground). Please lift them up to the Father that they would be able to learn.
