Dear parents
Many thanks for reviewing Arabic words with your children.
Book week was a hive of activity in K2. We read a nice story (The Hungry Caterpillar) and viewed this story on video. Throughout this story we talked about numbers from one to five in Arabic and children were given a learning engagement to support their knowledge of Arabic numbers. Later we talked about shapes (circle, square, triangle and rectangle), we drew shapes, decorated and created more shapes. We learned a new song about shapes (see the attachment below):
These are the new Arabic words we had:
