بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ.

In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.

الْحَمْدُ لِلّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ.

Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds.

وَالصَّلاةُ وَالسَّلامُ عَلَى الْمَبْعُوثِ رَحْمَةً لِلْعَالَمِينَ.

Prayers and peace be upon the one sent as a mercy to the worlds.

وَعَلَى آلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ وَمَنْ سَارَ عَلَى دَرْبِهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الدِّينِ.

Upon his family, his companions, and all who follow his path until the Day of Judgment.

فَهَذَا كِتَابُ (لُغَتُنَا الْجَمِيلَةُ) لِطَلَبَةِ الصَّفِّ الثَّانِي الْأَسَاسِيِّ فِي دَوْلَةِ فِلَسْطِينَ.

This is the book, Our Beautiful Language, for second-grade students in the State of Palestine.

وَهُوَ الْكِتَابُ الثَّانِي فِي سِلْسِلَةِ كُتُبِ اللُّغَةِ الْعَرَبِيَّةِ.

It is the second book in the Arabic language series.

وَقَدْ جَاءَ تَرْجَمَةً لِلْإِطَارِ الْعَامِّ لِلْمَنَاهِجِ وَالْخُطُوطِ الْعَرِيضَةِ لِمِنْهَاجِ اللُّغَةِ الْعَرَبِيَّةِ وَآدَابِهَا الَّذِي أَنْجَزَهُ الْفَرِيقُ الْوَطَنِيُّ.

It translates the general framework and broad outlines of the Arabic language and literature curriculum developed by the national team.

إِنَّ الْهَدَفَ الرَّئِيسَ مِنْ وَرَاءِ تَعْلِيمِ اللُّغَةِ الْعَرَبِيَّةِ هُوَ تَمْكِينُ الطَّلَبَةِ مِنْ تَوْظِيفِ اللُّغَةِ بِفَعَالِيَّةٍ فِي عَمَلِيَّاتِ الِاتِّصَالِ وَالتَّوَاصُلِ فِي الْمَوَاقِفِ الْحَيَاتِيَّةِ الْمُتَعَدِّدَةِ.

The primary goal of teaching Arabic is to enable students to use the language effectively for communication in various life situations.

وَقَدْ بُنِيَ الْكِتَابُ عَلَى أَسَاسِ الدُّرُوسِ لَا الْوَحْدَاتِ.

The book is structured around lessons rather than units.

حَيْثُ يُمَثِّلُ الْوَاحِدُ مِنْهَا وَحْدَةً مُتَكَامِلَةً.

Each lesson functions as an integrated unit.

وَيَتِمُّ فِيهِ تَنْظِيمُ الْخِبْرَاتِ التَّعْلِيمِيَّةِ بِحَيْثُ تَكُونُ فِي إِطَارٍ مُتَكَامِلٍ وَلَيْسَ فِي أَجْزَاءٍ مُنْفَصِلَةٍ.

Educational experiences are organized within an integrated framework rather than in separate parts.

وَفِيهِ أَيْضًا يَتِمُّ عَرْضُ مَجْمُوعَةٍ مِنَ الْأَفْكَارِ وَالْمَفَاهِيمِ وَالْمَعَارِفِ وَالْحَقَائِقِ الْمُتَرَابِطَةِ.

It presents a collection of interconnected ideas, concepts, knowledge, and facts.

وَيَتَدَرَّبُ الطَّلَبَةُ عَلَى مَهَارَاتٍ وَظِيفِيَّةٍ مُحَدَّدَةٍ.

Students practice specific functional skills.

وَيَحْتَسِبُونَ بَعْضَ الْقِيَمِ وَالِاتِّجَاهَاتِ وَالْمَعَارِفِ الْمُرْتَبِطَةِ بِالْخِبْرَاتِ التَّعْلِيمِيَّةِ.

They internalize values, attitudes, and knowledge related to these educational experiences.

وَلَمْ يُغْفِلِ الْكِتَابُ الْقِيَمَ الدِّينِيَّةَ، وَالْوَطَنِيَّةَ، وَالِاجْتِمَاعِيَّةَ، وَالْأُسَرِيَّةَ، وَالْإِنْسَانِيَّةَ.

The book incorporates religious, national, social, familial, and humanitarian values.

يَبْدَأُ الدَّرْسُ بِنَصِّ الِاسْتِمَاعِ، وَهُوَ مُسَجَّلٌ عَلَى قُرْصٍ مُدْمَجٍ، وَهُوَ مَوْجُودٌ فِي دَلِيلِ الْمُعَلِّمِ.

Each lesson begins with a listening text, which is recorded on a compact disc and provided in the teacher's guide.

أَمَّا أَسْئِلَةُ النَّصِّ فَمَوْجُودَةٌ فِي كِتَابِ الطَّالِبِ.

The corresponding questions are found in the student's book.

وَمِنْ ثَمَّ، تُوجَدُ لَوْحَةٌ لِلْمُحَادَثَةِ تُحَاكِي دَرْسَ الْقِرَاءَةِ.

Following this, there is a conversation board that mirrors the reading lesson.

وَقَدْ رُبِطَ دَرْسُ الْمُحَادَثَةِ بِالتَّعْبِيرِ الشَّفَوِيِّ.

The conversation lesson is linked to oral expression.

وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ بُنِيَ نَصُّ الْقِرَاءَةِ، وَتَبِعَهُ نَوْعَانِ مِنَ الْأَسْئِلَةِ، وَهِيَ: نُجِيبُ شَفَوِيًّا وَنُفَكِّرُ.

The reading text follows, accompanied by two types of questions: oral responses and critical thinking.

حَيْثُ إِنَّ أَسْئِلَةَ التَّفْكِيرِ أَسْئِلَةٌ غَيْرُ مُبَاشِرَةٍ تَسْتَدْعِي مَهَارَاتِ التَّفْكِيرِ الْعُلْيَا.

Thinking questions are indirect and designed to elicit higher-order thinking skills.

أَمَّا التَّدْرِيبَاتُ، فَجَاءَتْ مُرْتَبِطَةً بِنَصِّ الْقِرَاءَةِ.

The exercises are directly related to the reading text.

وَقَدْ أُولِيَتِ الْكِتَابَةُ أَهَمِّيَّةً خَاصَّةً، حَيْثُ اشْتَمَلَ الْكِتَابُ عَلَى ثَلَاثِ مَهَارَاتٍ مُخْتَصَّةٍ بِالْكِتَابَةِ.

Writing is given special importance, with the book including three specific writing skills.

وَتَنَوَّعَ الْإِمْلَاءُ فِي هَذَا الْكِتَابِ بَيْنَ الْمَنْقُولِ وَالْمَنْظُورِ.

Dictation exercises in this book alternate between copied and observed tasks.

كَمَا اشْتَمَلَ الْكِتَابُ عَلَى أَنَاشِيدَ مُتَنَوِّعَةٍ بِعُنْوَانِ (نُغَنِّي)، جَاءَتْ مُرْتَبِطَةً بِنُصُوصِ الْقِرَاءَةِ.

The book also includes various chants under the title We Sing, which are linked to the reading texts.

وَاشْتَمَلَ الْكِتَابُ عَلَى تَدْرِيبَاتٍ تُنَمِّي مَهَارَةَ التَّعْبِيرِ الْكِتَابِيِّ.

The book includes exercises to develop written expression skills.

إِنَّ الْمُعَلِّمَ هُوَ الْمِحْوَرُ الرَّئِيسُ فِي الْعَمَلِيَّةِ التَّعْلِيمِيَّةِ التَّعَلُّمِيَّةِ.

The teacher is the central figure in the teaching and learning process.

وَهُوَ الَّذِي يَقُومُ بِتَنْفِيذِ الْمِنْهَاجِ وَتَطْبِيقِهِ فِي الْغُرْفَةِ الصَّفِّيَّةِ.

The teacher is responsible for implementing and applying the curriculum in the classroom.

لِذَا، كُلُّنَا أَمَلٌ فِي أَنْ تُزَوِّدُونَا بِتَغْذِيَةٍ رَاجِعَةٍ لِلْكِتَابِ الْمَوْجُودِ بَيْنَ أَيْدِيكُمْ.

We hope you will provide us with feedback on this book.

حَيْثُ إِنَّ هَذِهِ الطَّبْعَةَ عِبَارَةٌ عَنْ طَبْعَةٍ تَجْرِيبِيَّةٍ.

This is an experimental edition.

وَنَحْنُ عَلَى يَقِينٍ أَنَّهَا سَوْفَ تُغْنِي الْكِتَابَ، وَتُسْهِمُ فِي تَطْوِيرِ مَهَارَاتِ أَطْفَالِنَا، وَتَخْدِمُ الْمَصْلَحَةَ الْفُضْلَى لَهُمْ.

We are certain your feedback will enrich the book, help develop our children's skills, and serve their best interests.

وَفَّقَكُمُ اللهُ لِمَا فِيهِ مَصْلَحَةُ الْوَطَنِ.

May Allah grant you success in serving the interests of our nation.
