Funnun Taqdim Al-Arabi Technique in Teaching Grammar for Integrated Dini Curriculum

摘要

Teachers should diversify their techniques in teaching. The purpose of this study is to explain the application of Funnun Taqdim al-Arabi ( FTA ) or fun?learning implemented in the process of grammar teaching and learning.?Grammar teaching is theoretical and practical and is part of the al-lughah al-Arabiah al-Muassiroh Integrated Dini Curriculum’s textbook. Grammar knowledge is fundamental to learning Arabic. However, the difficulty of learning grammar knowledge is often expressed by students in their effort to try and understand it. Therefore, the FTA is used to make grammar teaching easier to understand and to make it fun for students to learn. The design of this study is a case study using the qualitative method. Data collection was made based on interviews, teaching and learning observations and document analysis. Various techniques can be applied in grammar teaching to enable students to better understand and have them actively engaged in the teaching and learning process. There are several FTA techniques in the teaching of Arabic language skills such as the hiwar technique, language games, singing techniques, storytelling, Arabic choral speaking ( kalam jamaei ), acting, puzzles and exploration. In the context of this study, the application of the FTA techniques based on the findings of the study were language games such as the poisonous box game, sentence fragmentation, singing techniques, gamification such as Kahoot and quizzes implemented in the grammar teaching lessons. The implication of this study is that teachers need to master and apply FTA techniques in order to facilitate students’ understanding of grammar teaching under the Integrated Dini Curriculum.
