the Lower Secondary Level. A qualitative single case study
is used to investigate a phenomenon in the context of the actual situation. Data collection process involve
s interviews, classroom observation, video recording and analysis of relevant documents. A purposive sampling
method is carried out for selection of participants. The findings indicate that the approach used in selecting vocabulary can be divided into five categories: i) priority ; ii) frequency; iii) teaching ability
; iv) coverage; and v) familiarity. In other words, it is suggested that in facilitating student
comprehension and retention of target words, various criteria are considered by a teacher before choosing the teaching approach. The study also provides guidelines for choosing words to teach especially for Arabic teachers in the Lower Secondary Level. |
