So many things happen at ABIS and we love to share!The lesson titled “Who Are We” focuses on discussing the house and the environment we live in. The lesson can be divided into several parts: 1. **Introducing the House**: Students learn Arabic words to describe parts of the house, such as “room,” “living room,” “kitchen,” “bathroom,” “garden,” and more. 2. **Furniture in the House**: Students learn the names of furniture like “chair,” “table,” “bed,” “shelf,” “window,” and “door.” 3. **Describing Rooms**: Students practice how to describe rooms in the house using simple sentences, such as “The room is small” or “The living room is spacious.” 4. **Interactive Activities**: Students can engage in activities like arranging pictures of furniture in different rooms or drawing a house layout using the new words they have learned. 5. **Talking About the Family**: The lesson can also connect to the concept of family members, where students describe the rooms of each family member and the furniture they contain. The goal of this lesson is to help students use Arabic to express their ideas about the home environment.
