*Description from Publisher:* *Al-qutayrat *series consists of six drops,
each of a different color and a different thematic area, that have as a
main objective to make the student able to produce and understand all the
contents required at an advanced level of Arabic.
It provides a variety of drills and exercises to learn and practice the
grammatical points without neglecting the lexical, discursive and cultural
aspects of the language. The structure of this textbook is very simple:  in
each drop there is always a first audio exercise that serves as an
introduction to the covered topics. Next, a series of texts followed by a
wide range of activities to focus on the four skills: listening, writing,
speaking and reading. These texts, which can also be heard as audio texts,
are used as pretexts to work on all the grammatical, functional, phonetic
and cultural aspects. Finally, it includes answer keys to exercises and
transcription of all the audios.
This series is designed for a B2 level (advanced) and includes 6 books of
40-50 pages each. The contents are independently arranged throughout these
six books, so that each teacher can decide, according to the curriculum
needs, which books or drops to use for his / her groups of advanced level.
This method corresponds to an advanced level B2 of the Common European
Framework of* *Reference and each drop or book covers approximately 55
contact hours of instruction, plus 50 working / self-study hours by
students.
