Marhaba! Level 2 Curriculum Guide
Marhaba! Level 2 is designed for second-year Arabic language students at the middle school or high school level. Building upon the foundational grammar, vocabulary, and cultural knowledge students learned in Level 1, Level 2 helps students transition to longer conversations in Arabic, using a greater breadth of conversational topics. Level 2 also places increased emphasis on literacy skills, with more activities to support reading and writing.

- choosing which vocabulary and grammar structures to teach students

This is a excellent interactive approach that allows students to explore their creativity while learning the language. It gives students the opportunity to engage in more meaningful activities that cater to their own way of learning.
Marhaba! An Invitation to Arabic is an innovative, student-centered, standards-based Arabic curriculum that brings this rich and challenging language to life. Using the resources in the Curriculum Guides, educators guide students through the creation of personalized textbooks called daftars, a process that encourages them to take ownership of their own learning.
Marhaba! aligns with national standards and is informed by scientific research. Developed and tested for over four years by two dozen instructors and hundreds of students with diverse learning needs, the Marhaba! program has been proven to produce striking results at the middle school, high school, and college levels.
