Book Reviews of Oxford Picture Dictionary English-Arabic: Bilingual Dictionary for Arabic-speaking teenage and adult students of English

Book Review: great for ESL, not so much for learning Arabic
Summary: 4 Stars

I am a volunteer ESL/ABE tutor at a local library and this book is great for explaining words that would be hard to translate without a picture. For example, my student, a native Arabic speaker, was reading a passage on the first Thanksgiving and they didn't know what green beans were. All I had to do was open this book to the appropriate page and there was a picture with green beans and the words in both English and Arabic. It covers everything from family to food to places around town and more. They also sell workbooks to go with the Oxford Picture Dictionaries that are great, too. One downfall is that there are no Arabic pronounciations so it's not good if you're trying to learn Arabic. Overall though, a great book for the price and purpose.

Summary of Oxford Picture Dictionary English-Arabic: Bilingual Dictionary for Arabic-speaking teenage and adult students of English

Content is organized within 12 thematic units, including Everyday Language, People, Housing, Food and Recreation. Each unit starts with an Intro page (new to this edition) and ends with a story page, with single or double-page sub-topics introducing new words in a realistic visual context and easy-to-learn "chunks." The target new vocabulary is listed and simple practice activities help students put their new words into practice. Story pages include pre-reading questions to build previewing and predicting skills and post-reading questions and role-play activities to support critical thinking and to encourage students to use the new language they have learned. Rich visual contexts recycle words from the unit. This structure is designed to address the needs of multilevel classrooms. Supporting components include more guidance on this topic as well as assessing needs and lesson planning. (available in English only).
