Arabic Level V is based on newspaper articles from different parts of the Arab world. The articles revolve around several themes, and the structure of the language is discussed and reviewed. Course material focuses on professional topics of everyday interest including health, economic and popular culture such as: Arab Markets (historical markets, markets of Jeddah, Om Derman market), and Arab songs. At the end of the course, students should be able to read Arabic newspapers with a good general understanding, especially on familiar topics. Students should be able to express themselves by combining and recombining known elements.

Notes

Students seeking the Advanced Studies diploma will meet the world language requirements by completing three years/levels of study in one language or two years of study in each of two languages. Successful completion of each world language course results in one credit toward the Advanced Studies diploma. Additional sequential language courses beyond these requirements count as elective credits and fulfill the sequential elective requirement. Upper-level language courses offer the opportunity to earn eligibility for the Seal of Biliteracy. Many colleges require continued world language study throughout high school. If your student completes three years of language study by the end of freshman year, review specific language requirements for their prospective colleges.
