Phonetic Awareness in Arabic for the Early Years

Course Format		Course Details	Course Days: TBC Location: TBC Course Timings: TBC	Course Price
Course Suitable For	Teachers of the early years in government, private or international schools Parents – this will require material differentiation
About this Course	This workshop aims to introduce teachers of Arabic to a different way of thinking about phonetic awareness in the early years. Arabic has been taught through a traditional method that gives primacy to letter name over letter sound. Even though there have been a number of attempts to move towards a more phonics-based approach to the teaching of Arabic, there is a general reluctance among teachers to change their tried and tested methods, as there is a lack of understanding of the steps that need to be taken if Arabic were to be taught effectively through phonics.
Course Outcomes	Participants will be able to reconsider and re-evaluate the current ways in which Arabic reading is taught in the early years Participants will be introduced to a full-fledged phonics-based approach to the teaching of Arabic in the early years Participants will be engaged in professional discussions about early reading and sound development in order to elicit strategies for raising phonetic awareness Participants will be given strategies, tips and implementable suggestions that they can take straight to their classrooms

The workshop will present simple and practicable steps that can make learning to read a seamless experience for learners and teachers.
