مَرْحَبًا يَا أَصْدِقَائِي.

Hello, my friends.

عَامٌ دِرَاسِيٌّ سَعِيدٌ.. أَنَا هُنَا لِلْمُسَاعَدَةِ!

Happy school year! I am here to help.

سَأَصْحَبُكُمْ فِي رِحْلَتِكُمْ دَاخِلَ هَذَا الْكِتَابِ.

I will be your guide through this book.

إِنْ وَجَدْتُمُونِي فَاقْرَءُوا إِرْشَادَاتِي جَيِّدًا..

If you find me, read my instructions carefully.

وَفِي بَعْضِ الْأَنْشِطَةِ، قَدْ تَحْتَاجُونَ إِلَى اسْتِخْدَامِ كُرَّاسَتِكُمُ الْخَاصَّةِ؛ لِتُبْدِعُوا فِيهَا.

For some activities, you may need to use your own notebook to express your creativity.

لَكِنْ قَبْلَ أَنْ نَبْدَأَ عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ تَقْتَرِحُوا اسْمًا لِي:

But before we begin, you need to suggest a name for me:

اكْتُبُوا عَلَى السَّبُّورَةِ الْأَسْمَاءَ الْمُقْتَرَحَةَ.

Write your suggestions on the board.

يَقْرَؤُهَا الْمُعَلِّمُ أَوْ أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ بِصَوْتٍ عَالٍ.

The teacher or one of you will read them aloud.

نَرْفَعُ أَيْدِيَنَا لِلِاسْمِ الْمُفَضَّلِ.

Raise your hands for your favorite name.

نَخْتَارُ الِاسْمَ الَّذِي حَصَلَ عَلَى أَكْثَرِ عَدَدٍ مِنَ الْأَصْوَاتِ.

We will choose the name that gets the most votes.

هَيَّا نَتَعَلَّمُ مُفْرَدَاتٍ جَدِيدَةً:

Let's learn some new vocabulary:

أَنْشِطَةٌ لِلتَّدَرُّبِ عَلَى الْمُفْرَدَاتِ الْوَارِدَةِ فِي النَّصِّ.

Activities to practice the vocabulary from the text.

هَيَّا نَفْهَمُ وَنُنَاقِشُ:

Let's understand and discuss:

أَنْشِطَةٌ بَسِيطَةٌ لِلتَّأَكُّدِ مِنْ فَهْمِكُمُ لِلنَّصِّ الْمَقْرُوءِ.

Simple activities to check your understanding of the text.

هَلْ أَنْتُمْ مُسْتَعِدُّونَ لِلتَّحَدِّي:

Are you ready for a challenge?

هَيَّا بِنَا.

Let's go.

عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ تَتَحَدَّوْا أَنْفُسَكُمْ؛ لِتُجِيبُوا عَنْ هَذِهِ الْأَسْئِلَةِ.

Challenge yourselves to answer these questions.

قَسِّمُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ إِلَى مَجْمُوعَاتٍ صَغِيرَةٍ وَتَنَاقَشُوا حَوْلَ مَجْمُوعَةِ أَسْئِلَةٍ، ثُمَّ شَارِكُوا بَقِيَّةَ زُمَلَائِكُمْ مَا تَوَصَّلْتُمْ إِلَيْهِ.

Divide into small groups to discuss the questions, then share your findings with the rest of the class.

تَحَدَّى الدَّقِيقَةِ الْوَاحِدَةِ:

The one-minute challenge:

عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ تُظْهِرُوا قُدْرَتَكُمْ عَلَى التَّحَدُّثِ حَوْلَ أَمْرٍ مَا خِلَالَ دَقِيقَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ.. وَأَنَا وَاثِقٌ بِأَنَّكُمْ تَسْتَطِيعُونَ.

Show me you can talk about a topic for a full minute—I know you can do it.

بَطَاقَةُ الشُّكْرِ وَالتَّقْيِيمِ:

Thank you and evaluation card:

سَتَجِدُونَهَا دَاخِلَ هَذَا الْكِتَابِ، عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ تَسْتَمِعُوا بِدِقَّةٍ لِمَا يَعْرِضُهُ زَمِيلُكُمْ ثُمَّ تَكْتُبُوا لَهُ رِسَالَةً تَشْكُرُونَهُ فِيهَا وَتُوَضِّحُونَ لَهُ رَأْيَكُمْ فِيمَا عَرَضَ.

You will find this inside the book. Listen carefully to your classmate's presentation, then write them a note thanking them and sharing your thoughts on what they presented.

أَصْنَعُ قَامُوسِي:

My personal dictionary:

جَدْوَلٌ مُخَصَّصٌ لِتَكْتُبُوا فِيهِ الْمُفْرَدَاتِ الْجَدِيدَةَ الَّتِي تَعَلَّمْتُمُوهَا فِي النَّصِّ.

A table where you can record the new words you learned from the text.

عَوْدَةٌ لِلْقِرَاءَةِ مَعَ الْأُسْرَةِ:

Reading time with the family:

قِصَّةٌ مُشَوِّقَةٌ لِلْقِرَاءَةِ فَقَطْ، وَلِلِاسْتِمْتَاعِ بِهَا مَعَ أُسَرِكُمْ.

An engaging story for you to read and enjoy with your family.
