The students will learn about the roots of Arabic, words in Arabic that are similar to Hebrew words and will learn about the Arabic language through word games, sentences and songs. Through the sayings and expressions, which highlight the similarities between the cultures, we will also look at daily life and the values of culture in Islam and in Judaism. The students will discern the linguistic similarity between Arabic and Hebrew when they listen to passages in Arabic which refer to the exhibits in the museum, and familiar texts in both languages.
