Marhaba! An Invitation to Arabic is an innovative, student-centered, standards-based Arabic curriculum that brings this rich and challenging language to life. Using the resources in the Curriculum Guides, educators guide students through the creation of personalized textbooks called daftars, a process that encourages them to take ownership of their own learning.
Marhaba! aligns with national standards and is informed by scientific research. Developed and tested for over four years by two dozen instructors and hundreds of students with diverse learning needs, the Marhaba! program has been proven to produce striking results at the middle school, high school, and college levels.
