🟢 1. Today's letters — review أ to خ

This week we review all the letters we've met so far. Trace each one. Say its name as you go.

Now write each one yourself:

Star the one that feels easiest. Circle the one that's still tricky.

🟡 2. Find the letters

Circle every word below that contains أ. Underline every word that contains ش.

Hint: one word gets both a circle AND an underline!

🟠 3. I can read these words

Read these words out loud. Point to each one as you say it:

After you read them, say each one in a tiny whisper voice. Then in a big proud voice.

🟣 4. Match the polite word to the moment

Draw a line from each Arabic word to the moment when you'd say it.

🔵 5. Draw a polite moment

Draw a picture of yourself being polite to someone in your family. Maybe you're asking for something, or saying thank you. Write the Arabic word in the speech bubble.

The Arabic word in my bubble:  ________________

🌟 6. Mini-challenge (optional stretch)

In Arabic, please changes depending on who you're talking to:

• Talking to a boy or man →
  مِن فَضلَك
  (min fadlak)
• Talking to a girl or woman →
  مِن فَضلِك
  (min fadlik)

Fill in which one you'd say:

Tiny tip: the difference is one little vowel mark at the end. Listen for the "ak" vs the "ik."

📝 Tonight's home practice (1 minute)

Tonight, use two polite words with your family. One "please" and one "thank you." Then fill this in:
