Egyptian Geography: Listen First

How to play: nothing to do but listen — this is the Geography & History lesson as an audiobook, the same words that the Geography & History - In Class lesson teaches, read to you before you are ever asked a question. Your friends take turns: one of them says each word or sentence in Arabic while it appears in their speech bubble, pauses for the count you chose, says what it means in English while that appears, pauses again, says the Arabic once more, pauses, and moves on to the next — the lesson plays itself end to end. Use the pause button to stop the reading, and the two arrows to skip forward or back to another word. Below the game screen is every word in the lesson, in the same order it is taught, each with its meaning and a speaker to hear it again. There is no guessing, no timer and no failing — the words come in the same order every time, so each listening is a familiar run-through that prepares the classroom ahead. Each level is about ten words and sentences — the continents and countries, the compass, the capitals, the mountains, rivers and seas, and the pharaohs, pyramids and temples of Egyptian history — and all the levels together, played again as the Lesson Summary, are the whole lesson.
