Arabic Alphabet S Burr

Why is this book different to the others? How many boring Arabic alphabet books have adults written for children in an attempt to make learning this new and strange script easier? Perhaps you have a dusty shelf of generations of unsuitable books. But, this stops now! This book combines children's unique ability to remember the fun and the bizarre. It takes the Arabic letters and associates a relevant, yet unusual phrase with them to build long term memory and all round enjoyment for learning Arabic. What are the main ideas behind the book? As a passionate children's Arabic teacher, with over 60 current students, I used all of the creativity and imagination that my 4-11 year olds could muster to build this original and fun book for learning the Arabic alphabet. Children are often more aware of what helps them learn than what we give the credit for and too often do teachers, in their 40s assume the learning preferences of 6 years olds. However, in this book I have empowered my aspiring Arabic language scholars among my private students and those I teach at my own Arabic language centre to put forward their ideas and build this book together!
