Part A · 20 marks
Alphabet order and positional forms الحُرُوفُ وَأَشْكَالُهَا
A1 is a writing task marked by a person. A2 can be completed digitally because it asks you to identify an exact printed form.
Component A1 · Write the alphabet from memory
Write all 28 isolated letters in order from right to left. Type them below, write them using a mouse, finger or pen, or complete the task on paper. Do not use the alphabet wall. Then reveal the sequence, compare your answer and record the number of letters in the correct positions.
Type all 28 isolated letters in order from right to left.
Write from right to left using a mouse, finger or pen. Handwriting is not recognised or scored automatically.
Canvas ready. Drawing

Each correct position is worth ½ mark: 28
× ½ = 14.
Not yet marked complete.
Component A2 · Six positional forms
Select the exact form named. Feedback and score update immediately after each choice.

Part B1 · 10 marks
Ten-word guided dictation إِمْلَاءُ عَشْرِ كَلِمَاتٍ
Listen to each familiar word twice at a measured pace. Type it, write it on screen, or write it on paper before opening the script or answers. Then compare each whole word for the intended letters, joins and diacritics.
Listening script and response
🎧 Recorded assessment audio.
Write numbers 1–10. Listen to each word twice and write it before checking the expandable script.

Component B1 · Dictation evidence
Listen and write all ten words independently using the route that works for you. Open the script or answers only after writing, then compare each whole word before marking.
Type each word before opening the script or answers.
Write one word in each numbered area using a mouse, finger or pen. Handwriting is not recognised or scored automatically.

Before the first reading
Write numbers 1–10. Put pens down. Read the full list once so the rhythm is predictable.
During dictation
Each word is said twice. Leave a blank if needed and continue; return only after the complete list has been read.
Mark consistently
One whole-word mark. Record recurring errors separately using L (letter), J (join), D (dot) or M (mark).

Part B2 · 5 marks
Read five fully vowelled words قِرَاءَةُ خَمْسِ كَلِمَاتٍ مَشْكُولَةٍ
Choose the transliteration that preserves consonants, short vowels, long vowels and doubled sounds. Transliteration is only an assessment bridge; the Arabic remains primary.
Component B2 · Vowelled reading
Five multiple-choice questions, one mark each. Choose one answer at a time; feedback and score update immediately.
0 of 5 responses recorded.
Transliteration key: ā = long alif sound; ʿ = ع; doubled letters show shadda; “th” represents ث.
An equivalent consistent transliteration system can also be accepted.

Reading aloud · 10 marks
Read five target words in a short passage القِرَاءَةُ الجَهْرِيَّةُ

Level 2 · Heritage extension
هذا بيت كبير وفيه حديقة جميلة. تسكن فيه أسرة صغيرة قرب المدرسة.
Read the longer, partly unvowelled passage, but score the same five target words so the formal total remains comparable. Record extra fluency only as formative feedback.
Oral scoring panel · five words × 2
Select a score for every word, then record the component.
