Arabic Flashcards & Games

Flashcards, bingo, dominoes, loop cards and tarsia puzzles from one vocabulary list.

Five games, one list

Paste your vocabulary once and print whichever game the lesson needs:

  • Flashcards — Arabic one side, English the other, laid out to line up when printed double-sided.
  • Bingo — as many different grids as you have pupils, each with a different selection.
  • Dominoes — each tile pairs a word with a different word's meaning, so the set forms one loop.
  • Loop cards — "I have… who has…?" round the whole class.
  • Tarsia — a triangular jigsaw where each edge matches a word to its meaning.

Reproducible sets

The grids and the puzzle come from a seed rather than being reshuffled every time you press print. The same list and the same seed give the identical set — so you can print the missing card a pupil lost, or run the same game with next year's class.

Printing

Print at 100% scale. Flashcards and dominoes are meant to be printed double-sided and cut along the guides; check your printer flips on the long edge, or the backs will be upside down.

  • How Arabic broken plurals actually work — Why most Arabic nouns do not take a plural ending at all, the eight or so patterns that cover nearly everything a learner meets, and why teaching the rules first is the wrong way round.
  • Building Arabic vocabulary that survives the holidays — Why the topic list is the wrong unit, what the root system gives you that no European language does, and what to record alongside a word so that knowing it is worth something.

Common questions

Can I reproduce the same bingo cards next year?

Yes. The grids are generated from a seed, so the same word list with the same seed produces the identical set of cards.

What is a tarsia puzzle?

A jigsaw made of triangles where each internal edge pairs a word with its meaning. Pupils assemble it into a shape, which only works if every match is right — so it marks itself.

Why did my double-sided cards come out upside down?

Your printer is flipping on the short edge. Set it to flip on the long edge and the backs will line up.

Is there a limit on how many I can print?

No. It runs in your browser and costs us nothing to serve, so there is no account and no limit.
