أَيُّهَا الطَّالِبُ الْعَزِيزُ أَيَّتُهَا الطَّالِبَةُ الْعَزِيزَةُ:

Dear students:

هَذَا كِتَابُكُمَا (لُغَتِي الْجَمِيلَةُ) لِلصَّفِّ الرَّابِعِ الْجُزْءِ الثَّانِي مِنَ الْمُقَرَّرِ، وَيَحْتَوِي عَلَى وَحْدَةٍ بِعُنْوَانِ (آدَابٍ وَوَاجِبَاتٍ).

This is your textbook, My Beautiful Language, for the second half of the fourth-grade curriculum, which includes a unit titled "Etiquette and Duties."

وَتَشْمَلُ الْوَحْدَةُ نَشَاطَاتٍ مُتَنَوِّعَةً تُنَمِّي لَدَيْكُمَا الْقُدْرَةَ عَلَى التَّوَاصُلِ اللُّغَوِيِّ، الشَّفَهِيِّ وَالْكِتَابِيِّ، وَتُذْكِي فِي نَفْسَيْكُمَا رُوحَ الْبَحْثِ وَالْجِدِّ وَالْمُثَابَرَةِ، وَتَمَثُّلِ قِيَمِ الْإِسْلَامِ وَآدَابِهِ؛ لِتَكُونَا فَرْدَيْنِ صَالِحَيْنِ، تَبْنِيَانِ شَخْصِيَّتَيْكُمَا، وَتَخْدُمَانِ وَطَنَكُمَا.

The unit features a variety of activities designed to develop your oral and written communication skills, inspire a spirit of inquiry, diligence, and perseverance, and help you embody Islamic values and manners. These will help you become righteous individuals who build your own character and serve your homeland.

وَلِكَيْ تَسْتَفِيدَا مِنْ كِتَابِكُمَا، فِي إِثْرَاءِ لُغَتِكُمَا وَالِارْتِقَاءِ بِمُسْتَوَى أَدَائِكُمَا فِيهَا، يَلْزَمُكُمَا إِنْجَازُ النَّشَاطَاتِ الْوَارِدَةِ فِيهِ مُعْتَمِدَيْنِ عَلَى نَفْسَيْكُمَا، وَمُسْتَرْشِدَيْنِ بِتَوْجِيهَاتِ الْمُعَلِّمِ/ الْمُعَلِّمَةِ.

To get the most out of this book and improve your language performance, you must complete the activities independently while following your teacher’s guidance.

أَيُّهَا الْمُعَلِّمُ الْعَزِيزُ أَيَّتُهَا الْمُعَلِّمَةُ الْعَزِيزَةُ: وَفَّقَكُمَا اللَّهُ وَرَعَاكُمَا.

Dear teachers: May Allah grant you success and watch over you.

إِنَّكُمَا تَقُومَانِ بِأَعْظَمِ مِهْنَةٍ، بَلْ تَحْمِلَانِ أَسْمَى رِسَالَةٍ، وَإِنَّ تَحْقِيقَ الْكِتَابِ لِأَهْدَافِهِ وَغَايَاتِهِ التَّعْلِيمِيَّةِ وَالتَّرْبَوِيَّةِ مَرْهُونٌ بِوَعْيِكُمَا بِمَقَاصِدِهِ، وَطَرَائِقِ تَنْظِيمِهِ وَبِنَائِهِ، وَتَطْبِيقِكُمَا إِسْتِرَاتِيجِيَّاتِ التَّدْرِيسِ، الَّتِي تَتَمَحْوَرُ حَوْلَ الْمُتَعَلِّمِ، وَتَجْعَلُ مِنْهُ مُتَعَلِّمًا نَشِطًا، وَمُفَكِّرًا مُبْدِعًا، وَبَاحِثًا مُطَّلِعًا.

You hold the greatest profession and carry the noblest mission. The success of this book’s educational and pedagogical goals depends on your understanding of its objectives, its structure, and your application of student-centered teaching strategies that turn learners into active participants, creative thinkers, and informed researchers.

وَلِضَمَانِ جَوْدَةِ الْمُخْرَجَاتِ وَتَحَقُّقِ التَّطَلُّعَاتِ الْمَأْمُولَةِ نَرْجُو مِنْكُمَا الِالْتِزَامَ بِالْأُمُورِ الْآتِيَةِ:

To ensure high-quality outcomes and achieve our shared goals, we ask you to commit to the following:

الْحِرْصُ عَلَى مُرَاجَعَةِ الْمُكْتَسَبَاتِ السَّابِقَةِ مَعَ الطُّلَّابِ فِي الْأُسْبُوعِ الْأَوَّلِ مِنْ بِدَايَةِ الْفَصْلِ الدِّرَاسِيِّ.

Review previously acquired knowledge with students during the first week of the term.

الِاهْتِمَامُ بِتَفْعِيلِ الْمَشَارِيعِ وَفْقَ الطَّرِيقَةِ الْمُقْتَرَحَةِ فِي (مَشْرُوعِ الْوَحْدَةِ)؛ فَالْمَشَارِيعُ تُسْهِمُ فِي زِيَادَةِ وَعْيِ الطُّلَّابِ بِأَهَمِّيَّةِ مَضْمُونِ الْوَحْدَةِ، وَتُحِيلُ مَا يَتَعَلَّمُونَهُ إِلَى وَاقِعٍ عَمَلِيٍّ يُمَارِسُونَهُ فِي حَيَاتِهِمُ الْعَامَّةِ.

Actively implement projects as outlined in the "Unit Project" section, as these help students grasp the importance of the unit’s content and translate their learning into practical habits in their daily lives.

التَّرْكِيزُ عَلَى تَنْمِيَةِ مَهَارَاتِ اللُّغَةِ الْأَرْبَعِ (الِاسْتِمَاعِ وَالْقِرَاءَةِ وَالتَّحَدُّثِ وَالْكِتَابَةِ)، وَخَيْرُ وَسِيلَةٍ لِاكْتِسَابِهَا أَنْ يَرَوْا فِيكُمَا مِثَالًا يُحْتَذَى وَنَمُوذَجًا يُقْتَدَى فِي حُبِّ اللُّغَةِ الْعَرَبِيَّةِ وَتَمَثُّلِ مَهَارَاتِهَا فِي كُلِّ الْأَحْوَالِ.

Focus on developing the four language skills: listening, reading, speaking, and writing. The best way for students to acquire these is by seeing you as role models who love the Arabic language and demonstrate its mastery in all situations.

الْحِرْصُ عَلَى تَفْعِيلِ إِسْتِرَاتِيجِيَّاتِ الْفَهْمِ الْقِرَائِيِّ بِتَطْبِيقِهَا فِي نَصِّ الْفَهْمِ الْقِرَائِيِّ؛ لِتَعْزِيزِ مَهَارَاتِ الطَّالِبِ فِي فَهْمِ الْمَقْرُوءِ.

Apply reading comprehension strategies to the assigned texts to strengthen students' ability to understand what they read.

الِاسْتِفَادَةُ مِنْ نَمُوذَجِ اخْتِبَارِ الْوَحْدَةِ فِي: بِنَاءِ أَسْئِلَةِ اخْتِبَارِ نِهَايَةِ الْوَحْدَةِ؛ لِقِيَاسِ أَثَرِ التَّعَلُّمِ.

Use the unit test model to design your own end-of-unit assessments to measure learning progress.

تَدْرِيبُ الطُّلَّابِ عَلَى قِرَاءَةِ الْأَسْئِلَةِ وَحَلِّهَا بِالِاعْتِمَادِ عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ.

Train students to read and solve questions independently.

وَفَّقَكُمَا اللَّهُ وَرَعَاكُمَا.

May Allah grant you success and watch over you.
