الملخص EN

This research aims to analyze and compare the content of the French language course content designed for the 1st year secondary school and the English language text-book designed for the 5th and 6th class/Primary Level.

A comparative content analysis with respect to the number of words in the two books is applied as a methodological approach.The questions and hypothesis of the research are vested on the type and the number of words (nouns, verbs, adverbs, conjunctions, sentences...etc.) used in the French language text-book designed for the 1st year secondary school and the English language course designed for the 5th and 6th class/Primary Level that expected to be learned by the beginners students and pupils in the 1st year secondary school and the 5th and 6th class/Primary Level.

A comparison between the content of these two books and the universal standard of teaching foreign language to beginning learners will be carried out.

The researcher applied the descriptive methodological approach to build-up the theoretical aspects of the study and the content analysis technique through the calculation of words to collate the required data from the two identified books for further analysis and discussion.

Major findings of the research are :The number of words of the content of the French textbook exceeds to some extent the time assigned for teaching this book, may be, due to the previous knowledge of the secondary student to a foreign language.

The content of the English language designed for the 5th and 6th/Primary class S.school Level is too weak with so limited words (in number and selection) that are far beyond the time identified for teaching the book.

This book certainly does not satisfy the need of the primary level pupil ambitions who learns for the sake of learning and not for competing to find a place in the higher education.

Also the results of the research confirmed that the French course is more effective in content, lay-out and teaching methodology as compared with the English course designed for the 5th and 6th class/Primary Level.
