What a delightful talk we had with Dr. Riham @tutatuta.childrenbooksinarabic during International Mother Language Day.

We have also launched the new dialect cards extensions for the boardgame Vokalimat in Arabic!! WOOO HOOO 🙌🥳
We will soon announce when they will be available on alaabi’s website!
We discussed:
#What is the correct definition of a child’s “mother-tongue” … the real one!!!
#What is Mother-Tongue Based Education as promoted by the World Bank and others?
#What is the “vocabulary” gap that impacts your child’s future and schooling?
#Why playing games and reading in the mother tongue are very important?*******************

‎كان حوارا شيقا مع د. رهام من توتة توتة بمناسبة اليوم العالمي للغة الام وقرب صدور أوراق لعبة «فوكلمات» باللهجات المحكية/العاميات.

تمحور الحديث حول:
- ما هو التعريف الصحيح للغة الام.
- ما هو "التعليم القائم على اللغة الام" الذي يناشد به البنك الدولي وغيره
- ما هي "فجوة المفردات" التي تؤثر على مستقبل الطفل في التعلّم
- دور القراءة واللعب باللهجات المحكية في تعزيز اللغة ونمو الطفل.
