Description
Through engaging with authentic texts, this advanced class aims to activate the
language skills students have learned in previous language courses. We will read
selections from Arabic poetry and prose and will respond to them in writing,
discussion and translation. We will focus on close reading, relying on our
knowledge of grammar. We will also work to develop writing, comprehension, and
speaking skills through short critical responses and oral presentations. All class
discussions will be conducted in Arabic.
