The Arabic Alphabet - Alif and Nuun - The 'a' and 'n' sounds!

This Powerpoint and accompanying flash card activity has been designed to guide beginner Arabic students towards learning how to recognise, pronounce, read and write the letters ‘alif’ and ‘nuun’ from the Arabic alphabet. In addition to learning how the form of the letters changes depending upon their position in words, students also build their Arabic vocabulary through recognising and reciting words containing alif and nuun within them. Students also learn how the hamza affects the pronunciation of alif.

Combined, this learning furnishes the students with all of the infomation that they need in order to be able to speak and write ‘ana’ (‘I’ or ‘I am’ in Arabic), vital to a wide range of sentences.

Included in this pack is:

• Comprehensive and colourful step-by-step PowerPoint;
• Bronze silver and gold vocaulary cards (in order to differentiate the flashcard challenge);

Worksheets are provided in both PDF (to maintain formatting) and Word (for easy editing). All images are cited on the final slide of the presentation.
