This curriculum guide is designed for the Arabic language training of Peace Corps workers in Tunisia, and reflects daily communication needs in that context. An introductory section describes the materials' organization and competency-based approach, and lists the 28 specific competencies targeted and the constructions taught within each competency. Subsequent sections address the competencies individually, listing the lesson topic, competency, specific constructions (in Arabic) for the lesson in each language skill area (listening, speaking, reading, writing), vocabulary list, cultural notes, and additional references. Topics include greetings and introductions, self-identification, classroom communication, postal services, telephone use, shopping, food and restaurants, describing preferences, requesting directions, family and family life, seeking medical assistance, transportation, describing work, travel, obtaining needed papers, responding to incidents, housing, invitations, emergency assistance, clothing, appropriate response in political and religious discussions, health, kitchen utensils and cooking, responding to police identity checks, and bargaining. Brief notes on trainee evaluation are appended. (MSE)
