Here is a pic of two items that have practically become extra appendages of our bodies: our Arabic books. The one on the left with a camel on it consists of vocabulary words, conversations, greetings, games and activities to help us commit to our memories what new things we are learning. We use it to practice the local dialect for our part of the Middle East. The one on the right is for more formal Arabic, including vocabulary, but focusing more on rules and grammar. This one is spoken among people from all Arab counties, so theoretically, we could go to Morocco and be able to converse with people there. I sure could use a vacation. Maybe the school will consider a field trip. It is only a few thousand miles away:)
