Collins Arabic Big Cat is a guided reading series for ages 3 to 11.
The series is structured with reference to the learning progression
of Arabic at nursery and primary schools researched especially for
Collins. This carefully graded approach allows children to build up
their reading knowledge of Arabic step by step. Level 7 books
include story lines with more episodes in time sequence, and may
include imaginary happenings in the context of familiar
experiences. There is still repetition but more variation in
pattern and more new words are introduced than in lower levels.
Non-fiction titles bring in simple non-fiction tools, such as
diagrams, labels and captions. Additional vowel marks that
encourage the flow of pronunciation are introduced at this level.
Verbal sentences of up to 8-10 words with repeating and accessible
actions appear at this level. Double spacing is used between words
to ensure children see where each new word in a sentence begins and
ends. The frog is sitting at the bottom of the pond, doing nothing.
But other animals keep coming after her and she has to hop away!
Follow the frog as she hops around the pond in her search for a bit
of peace in this wonderfully illustrated book by Petr Horacek.
Children can recap the frog's journey from the bottom of the pond
and back again on pages 14-15.
