3. Content and Structure of Arabyati’ Curricula
- Arabyati’ curricula combine the five language skills: (listening, speaking, reading, writing, and language development).
- Each curriculum (level) consists of five units, each consisting of five lessons, starting with a listening lesson and ending with a language development lesson.
- Listening and reading texts and speaking topics vary, covering various life situations.
- Writing and expression lessons target direct writing skills (writing syllables and words) and spelling skills, in addition to creative writing at advanced levels.
- Language development lessons focus on presenting applied functional grammar without directly addressing issues of syntax and grammatical structure.
- Vocabulary, sentences, and structures are based on the principle of commonality and the learners’ need for the structures presented to practice them in their daily lives.
- The curricula are supported by short educational and entertaining videos, in addition to Reels explaining the language skills.
