Today we had a great day alhamdulilah!
Islamic Studies: Students sat on the carpet and we talked about some of Allah's creations. Each student took a turn to say one of Allah's creation that amazes him or her.
We discussed the story we read yesterday of Prophet Ibrahim and the idols.
We learned that good deeds are very important in the blessed days we are in now. We discussed some of the many blessings we have and how we could help the Syrian refugees. Students watched videos showing how the people in Syria are living.
They worked in groups to make I Charts showing the blessings they have and how we can help make the lives of the Syrians better by paying Sadaqa. Masha'Allah they all did a great job!
Math: We played a game called " Catch the Ball" about some math facts (addition, subtraction, telling the time, shapes, coins and patterns)
Students went back to their places and worked independently on a math pack.
Reading: We went over the I Chart for reading to Self, students took their book boxes and read quietly. We have a Stamina Chart in class where we record the number of minutes we maintain stamina everyday.
Gym: Today students took turns to race each other in the gym. It was a lot of fun!
Important Notes:
- Today students took home their Classdojo login information. Your child can get and lose points on Classdojo. I will be sending pictures of activities we do in class, and it is also a great way to always be updated on your child's progress!
- They also took home "The 10 days of Dhul-Hijjah's Good Deed Chart" where they should keep track of the good deeds they do and colour one stone at the end of each day.
- In shaa Allah students will have a spelling quiz every Monday. We completed the first lesson in our spelling book, and in shaa Allah on Monday there will be a spelling quiz on the list words in lesson 1.
- If your child does not have indoor shoes, please make sure you bring them as soon as possible.
EMBRACE SYRIA-MAC NATIONAL CAMPAIGN:
Today students took home a form where you can donate to help the Syrian Refugees.
I hope you have a great evening!
