What is a good arabic textbook for middle school students?

We Answered:

The Al-Kitaab fii Ta'allum al-'Arabiyya series with DVDs is probably the best for MSA and can be purchased on Amazon.com. There is a supplemental book in the series called Alif Baa, which is for learning the script.

There are other textbooks that are geared towards younger students so you should check Amazon, just search "Arabic textbook". But the problem is some of them don't have reviews. Al-Kitaab is the one used mostly in college courses and probably the most thorough and trusted. You should look through it at a college bookstore and see if you think it would be suitable for students that age.

In America, what french textbook is used at school?

We Answered:

For those states that have a state adoption process, you can find the approved texts on the state department of education website. Common texts are:
Glencoe (Bienvenue, Bonvoyage)
HRW (Allez, viens)
McDougall-Littell Discovering French (by Valette and Valette)
EMC C'est ca
Aamsco French is Fun
Every school district chooses its own book, and in some states, every teacher or school.
Starting language in grade 9 is common.
Some areas have earlier entries, from first grade on up.
Where I teach students can start in grade 7 (and we use Valette, but I tend not to use the text as much)
