As usual, the first class was a music class and the students were playing music. After the music class we went back to the class, and I start teaching Eid Al Shamsi Arabic. I started asking him what he know in Arabic and review them. After that I start teaching him the first two letters in Arabic alphabet, I used repetition, doing, connecting to real world and home practicing technique with him. I use to say the letters and he repeat after me, then I ask him to write the letters, then I start link the letters with something around him and at the end I ask him to practice what he learnt today at home. After finishing the class, it''s break time and students have their breakfast and I joined them. I have some conversations with them and I figured out that I know Eid's brother and that will help me in teaching him. The students start feeling more comfortable with me and they start interaction and talking with me without being afraid or confused.
Day 4 : Wednesday 23 April .. 12:00 pm to 1:00
There was no enough time to do more activities, so I've started teaching Eid numbers, colors and some greetings in Arabic. He asked me to teach him how to speak with people because he can understand what they say but he can't answer. I start speaking with him in Arabic, just short simple conversations and he start answering. Furthermore, I asked his brother to talk with him Arabic in home and he start talking Arabic more at home. Unfortunately, the day was over too fast and we end up by saying goodbye with each others but in Arabic.
