Foundation in reading

Author's name: Malik Al-Mahdhari

This is a book on the foundations of reading. I have included in it the principles of reading in easy, familiar terms.

At this stage, the student must memorize the alphabet and have the ability to distinguish between the three vowels: fatha, damma, and kasra, between sukun, between extended and non-extended letters, between stressed and non-stressed letters, and between words with and without tanween.

At this stage: The teacher reads the letters or words, explaining how to write the letter or word, and distinguishing between the shapes of the letters and how they connect to each other.

Then the teacher trains his students to write the words from the book or the board after reading and understanding them, and to spell some of their words.
