Abstract

This research was conducted with the aim of knowing the effects of the the impact of the "Your Questions and My Answers" strategy on the acquisition of Arabic grammar rules and the development of reflective thinking. To verify the aim of the research, the researcher formulated the following null hypothesis: There is no statistically significant difference at the significance level (0.05) between the average scores of students in the experimental group who study Arabic grammar using the strategy (Your Questions and My Answers) and the average scores of students in the control group who study the same subject using the traditional method in the post-achievement test prepared by the researcher. . The two groups were exposed to the achievement test and the reflective thinking test. The study population comprised schools in Diyala Governorate , specifically the Al-Muqdadiyah Education Directorate, with Al-Hadi Intermediate School for Boys. The research sample amounted to 60 students, with 30 students for each group. Key results revealed the experimental group’s superiority over the control group in both Arabic grammar achievement and reflective thinking
