I Have Who Has is a great game to play whole class to practice numbers, additions/subtraction fact, sight words, or in this case, the Arabic Alphabet. Each student takes a card and reads which letter of the alphabet they have, followed by who has the next letter.
EX: "I have A, Who has B?" (English Version)
The child that has the corresponding letter reads their card and so on, until every card has been read.
This pack includes:
1 set of cards with all Arabic words and letters
1 set of cards with English words and Arabic letters
