My First Arabic Mini-Book
Children gather their favourite Arabic words from the Explorer route and make a small paper book about themselves: my name, my family, a colour, a number and something I love. They learn the page frames أَنَا … (I am …), هٰذَا / هٰذِهِ … (this is …) and أُحِبُّ … (I love …), then share the book with a grown-up, reading it the Arabic way, from the right.
