Elaborations
- discriminating between simple vowels, for example, تَ؛ تِ؛ تُ, long vowels or the three vowel letters ا؛و؛ي, such as تا؛ تي؛ تو and consonant letters in a syllable block
- using basic punctuation in writing, including question marks (?), commas (,) and full stops (.) and semi-colons (؛)
- recognising that letters change form depending on their place in the word, for example,ك: كتب؛ يكتب؛ كتابك؛ ع: عين؛ معلم؛ م
- noticing that vocalisation such as َ؛ ِ؛ ُ may change the function of the word depending on where it is placed, for example, كَتَبَ؛ كُتُب؛ لَعِبَ؛ لُعَب
- experimenting with Arabic words and vowels to construct and deconstruct syllable blocks, for example, …كا/تب؛ سا/لم؛ فا/دي؛ كر/سي؛ غر/فة؛
- using basic pronunciation and intonation rules when speaking and reading aloud
- deducing from familiar sounds and contexts how to spell new words, for example, predicting how to spell هادي؛ وادي؛ شادي having learnt how to spell فادي
- comparing different forms of writing for the letter أ, for example, أ؛إ؛آ
