In the Desert: Level 6 (Collins Big Cat Arabic Reading Programme)

Collins Big Cat Arabic Reading Programme

Collins Arabic Big Cat is a guided reading series for ages 3 to 11. The series is structured with reference to the learning progression of Arabic at nursery and primary schools researched especially for Collins. This carefully graded approach allows children to build up their reading knowledge of Arabic step by step. Level 6 books provide an advance on level 5. Sentences are still highly repetitive but slightly longer, with simple story development supported by illustrations. Double spacing is used between words to ensure children see where each new word in a sentence begins and ends. Although the focus at level 6 remains on reading the core words, the concept of reading hamzat al-wasl and sun letters correctly is introduced in non-verbal sentences of up to 4-5 words. So, you think you know the desert? This simple non-fiction report explores the exciting, extraordinary elements of the desert, from beautiful plants, to fantastic creatures, tall buildings, and children themselves! Amazing photographs accompany this information book. Photographs of all the different things that can be found in the desert on pages 14-15 help children to recap and provide a wealth of speaking and listening opportunities.
