How to read this lesson.
Fatha (a stroke above) gives a, kasra (a stroke below) gives i, and damma (a small waw above) gives u. Keep them short, about one beat.
Work through the grid from right to left, row by row, saying each cell aloud. When you can read a cell without looking at the transliteration, mark it as known. Repeat the lesson the next day before moving on.
