Vocabulary Retention and a Possible Solution

I am in level 11 now at Markaz Fajr. Retaining vocabulary from previous levels is a little overwhelming at times. Speaking in Arabic and using the words you’ve learned is key. I love index cards but I just can’t see myself making a thousand + index cards worth of words I’ve learned. Plus, I like reusable things.

I am pleased to announce a solution I’ve found! I’m very excited to try the following awesome idea I found on Lifehack.org: How to make dry-erase index cards!

Make sure you scroll to the bottom of that post and read the specific part I’m referring to. =D
