This study aimed at developing an instructional unit in Arabic language based on literary awareness and test its effectiveness on developing the skills of literary appreciation among second year scientific secondary school students in Jordan. The participants of the study consisted of (80) female students from the second year of scientific secondary school at Al-Baqa’a Comprehensive Secondary School for Girls. The sections were randomly assigned into two groups, so that Division (C) represented the experimental group that was taught using the developed unit, and Division (A) represented the control group that studied using the usual way. To achieve the objectives of the study, the unit was developed, the literary appreciation test was prepared, and the test was applied to the two groups before and after teaching, as the experimental and control group studied for (20) days in the second semester of the academic year (2021/2022), and the results of the statistical analysis showed the absence of statistically significant differences in literary appreciation skills between the experimental and control groups on the pre-test among students of the second grade of scientific secondary school in Jordan, and the existence of statistically significant differences between the experimental and control groups in the literary appreciation test in favor of the experimental group attributed to the development of the unit based on literary awareness. In light of the results the study recommended conducting more studies on the development of academic units in other branches of Arabic language, with the concern of curriculum makers in the inclusion of literary awareness in the Arabic language.
