Saudi Arabia Primary 4 Arabic Language Curriculum
The Arabic language curriculum for Primary 4 in Saudi Arabia is a core subject within the larger national curriculum framework. Primary school spans six years and includes subjects like Arabic, Islamic studies, art, geography, history, and physical education (for boys) or home economics (for girls). In general, the Saudi Arabian national curriculum emphasizes Islamic values and Arabic language proficiency. English is introduced as a subject at the beginning of Primary 4. At some schools, math is taught in English specifically in grade 4, while other grades learn math in Arabic.
While details about the specific Primary 4 Arabic curriculum are difficult to find publicly, some resources suggest that it focuses on developing existing Arabic language skills in students, including speaking, listening, reading, and writing. A blog post from 2013 mentions Arabic curriculum books for grades 3-4, but direct links to the content of these books are not readily available. There are various Arabic language learning resources available online and in bookstores, but their direct relevance to the official Saudi Primary 4 curriculum is unclear. Several learning materials are available for teaching Arabic to non-native speakers, including textbooks, workbooks, and online resources. Some of these resources are designed for Islamic schools or for use in North America, and may not align perfectly with the Saudi curriculum. |
