Primary 2 Student’s Book ~ CO 0 te ae ct) ute (Gardner ~“)§4 pivotal time in the history of the Ministry of Education and Technical Education (MOETE) in Bgypt. We are ‘embarking on the transformation of Egypt's K-12 education system (Education 2.0) starting in September 2018 with KGI, KG2 and Primary 1, continuing to be tolled out year after year until 2030. We are transforming the way in which students || learn to prepare Egypt's youth to succeed in a future world that we cannot entirely imagine. The rapid technological advancement and disruptions to industries and the workplace requires MOETE to undergo a major configuration of when to Iearn and what to learn. The foundational skills of literacy, numeracy and digital literacy are the core. Education at | young age also needs to be multidisciplinary to broaden students’ horizons, integrating the essential soft skills and competencies such as communication and critical thinking into the school curriculum. There must be joy in learning 50 that students are motivated to engage in lifelong learning throughout their lives keeping up and staying ahead of changes in the world. Curriculum is not the end but the beginning of the important process of changing Egypt's education system. MOETE is very proud to present this new series of textbooks, Connect Plus, with the accompanying digital learning materials that capture its vision of the transformation journey. This is the result of much consultation, much thought and a lot of work. We have drawn on the best expertise and experience from national and international organizations and education professionals to support us in translating our vision into an innovative national curriculum framework and exciting and inspiring print and digital learning materials. ‘The MOBTE extends its deep appreciation to its own Center for Curriculum and Instructional Materials Development (CCIMD) and specifically, the CCIMD Director and her amazing team. MOETE is also very grateful to the minister's senior advisors for curriculum and early childhood education. Our deep appreciation goes to Discovery Education, Nahdet Masr, Longman Egypt, UNICEF. UNESCO, World Bank Education Experts and UK Education Experts who, collectively, supported the development of Egypt’s national curriculum framework. T also thank the Egyptian Faculty of Education professors who participated in reviewing the national curriculum framework. Finally, T thank each and every MOBTE administrator in all MOETE sectors as well as the MOETE subject counsellors who participated in the process. This transformation of Egypt's education system would not have been possible without the significant support of | Egypt's current president, His ency President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi. Overhauling the education system is part of Bactation and Scenic Rego Cul fa Yas fsa late 3 ty dn ina bigger national efor joped countries and to ensure a great future to all of its citizens. A Word from the Minister of Education and Technical Education It is my great pleasure to celebrate this extraordinary moment in the history of Egypt where we launch a new education system designed to prepare a new Egyptian citizen proud of his Egyptian, Arab and African roots - a new citizen who is innovative, a critical thinker, able to understand and accept differences, competent in knowledge and life skills, able to _ learn for life and able to compete globally. Egypt chose to invest in its new generations through building a transformative and modern education system consistent international quality benchmarks. The new education system is designed to help our children and grandchildren enjoy a better future and to propel Egypt to the ranks of advanced countries in the near future. The transformation of || the Egyptian citizen is Egypt’s national project for the years to come and it is the only safeguard for a prosperous future ‘The fulfillment of the Egyptian dream of transformation is indeed a joint responsibility among all of us; governmental institutions, parents, civil society, private sector and media institutions. Here, I would like to acknowledge the critical role of our beloved teachers who are the role models for our children and who are the cornerstone of the intended transformation. 1 ask everyone of us to join hands towards this noble goal of transforming Egypt through education in order to restore Egyptian excellence, leadership and great civilization. ‘My warmest regards to our children who will begin this journey and my deepest respect and gratitude to our great teachers.
