Reminders

Ahlan ya Tullaab,

Dear students in Arabic 401,

In addition to your dictation quiz on unit 3, please begin studying unit 4, and keep reviewing your old vocabulary.

Dear students in Arabic 503,

In addition to your quiz, please learn your مفردات from chapter 9, and practice them by doing تمرين 2. Any chance you get, review your old vocabulary, and use them with the new in your imaginary conversations, if you're not getting together with others in group study. I hope that you do have groups that meet on regular basis to practice your Arabic. It is essential to your learning, and level of comfort with the language.
