The importance of mastering this subject is also emphasized in the Malaysian Education Development Plan (2013-2025). Thus, the need to examine language learning strategies with students’ text readability is relevant. However, studies related to the readability of Arabic texts have been found to be limited and there are still weaknesses of students in using language learning strategies. Thus, this study aims to identify the relationship between language learning strategies and the readability of form four KBD Arabic textbooks among Government Aided Religious Schools (SABK) students. The Schema theory and the Interactive Reading Model by Rumelhart (1977) were used as the basis of this study. Meanwhile, quantitative design by survey was implemented on 694 students in five zones of SABK using the proportional strata random sampling technique. Data were analyzed descriptively and inferentially covering frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, Pearson correlation tests, and Kuder Richardson 20. The results of the study showed that the language learning strategies were at a moderate level. On the other hand, the level of readability of the Arabic textbooks of the students was disappointing. There was a weak significant positive relationship between language learning strategies and readability of form four KBD Arabic textbooks among SABK students. The implications of the study contributed to the applicability of the theories and models underpinned in the context of this study. The results of the study can also be used by teachers to help students improve their language learning strategies as well as to increase the readability achievement.","PeriodicalId":29848,"journal":{"name":"Ijaz Arabi Journal of Arabic Learning","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41524680","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, the conceptual framework was created by combining two language theories, the bi/multilingual language theory by Cummins and the social theory by Vygotsky. These theories are relevant to be used and combined to suit the issues regarding teaching and learning the Arabic Language among Bidayuh’s multilingual pupils. Arabic is their fourth or fifth language. Based on this conceptual framework, the combined two theories play a significant role in teaching multilingual pupils because it can be seen from the formation of language from the pupils’ brain (common underlying proficiency). Teachers can strengthen the use of foreign languages by the Social Theory proposed. It is crucial to the teachers to know how to be competent to let the pupils use the language whereby the language is already stored in their brains. Based on that, the research came with ‘The Shopping Cart’ analogy. It describes the importance of teachers controlling the cart, which determines how competent they create the lesson (using social theory) while the things in the cart as the pupils and the cart itself as a lesson created. The analogy fills the 'paradigm gap' of previous studies in looking at how Arabic teachers in primary schools impart Arabic language education to pupils of different races and ethnicities","PeriodicalId":29848,"journal":{"name":"Ijaz Arabi Journal of Arabic Learning","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43067861","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
