Our Foundation Arabic students recently took part in a fun and engaging hands-on activity: Building bird nests using natural and craft materials. This project was part of our thematic unit on animals and habitats, supporting both language development and cross-curricular learning.
Working in small groups, students used feathers, tree leaves, cotton, and paper to design and construct their own nests. Along the way, they explored key Arabic vocabulary related to nature and animals, such as عش الطائر (bird’s nest), ريش (feathers), ورق الشجر (tree leaves), using new words in meaningful, creative ways.
It was wonderful to see our young learners collaborating, discussing, and problem-solving while speaking Arabic and connecting with the natural world.
Activities like this truly bring language to life, showing how immersive, play-based learning can spark curiosity, creativity, and joy in the classroom.
