While using standard Arabic, our carefully chosen vocabulary can be used and pronounced in the same manner in all Arabic dialects. As it is a base, children can relate to and apply in their daily life, both at home and later when reintroduced into a mainly Arabic speaking environment.

Traditional Arabic phonics are generally introduced using a scaffolded approach. This approach begins by identifying letters, followed by studying the sounds of the letters and how to write them. The lesson will resume by identifying easy words that can be created using these letters, using flashcards and simple rhymes. Research has proven that children can best retain vocabulary, use it naturally and with ease by associating them with its context; rather than by introducing them in association with just reading, with letters alone and without understanding its meaning.

Takallam’s approach to learning is based on exposing children to meaning and concepts by developing an interest in discovery and exploration of letters, words and relatable topics one at a time within context using phonics as a foundation. While each of these are presented with steps a child must proceed on to, there is no exhaustion of information, each step becomes an enjoyable discovery making each task manageable. Information is key but allowing the child to understand and apply this information is even more important in learning retention.

• The curriculum is organized within 28 topics, each topic introduces one letter sound and the child needs to go through 9 games to pass each topic. the games focus on the instruction of 6-10 key vocabulary objectives. Throughout the lessons, children will also develop exposure to Arabic sounds and letters as well as 2-3 visual representational words they can relate to in each topic.
• The Takallam methodology is based on self-direction, immersion, and learning through play. 
• The engaging content encourages repetition, which is essential for comprehension and retention of the learning objectives.

• Games
• Songs
• Videos
• Interactive writing exercises
• Printable worksheets/resources
• Recommended family activities, recipes, and supplementary material via parents/teacher support inside the app.

Our phonics learning system provides an animated story for each sound presented by a main character which introduces the sounds and an associated word to your child directly within the video. This leads to an immersive game to help the child understand the content they were just presented with and learn vocabulary as they take part and complete the task. This allows the child to test their knowledge of the material, as well as optional voice recording for practice.

This program is divided into 4 progressive levels based on ease of learning. Children progress through the levels until they can fully recognize, pronounce, interact and identify the alphabet in different shapes and formats, while using their new vocabulary to form comprehensive sentences.

Takallam introduces phonics, using sounds and letters within meaningful and relatable texts in order to gradually build a strong basis of language. While also focusing on standard topics, such as shapes, colors, numbers, social and emotional topics, we introduce additional topics that deal with current issues in their development state, such as caring for the environment and family bonding. Children are exposed to this vocabulary and within a context they can apply their knowledge of the Arabic language into present situations. The use of games, videos, songs and activities will pique their interest and are designed specifically to adapt to their level or learning style.
