Interactive Writing

Yesterday, we practised interactive writing.

The students and I decided on a topic together and shared the pen writing the sentence.  After discussing sometime we decided on 1 topic which was: talking flower. We then discussed how we would begin and end our sentence.

Together we came up with:

One day we saw a beautiful flower and it talk to us.

Guided Reading

Today we pratised guided Reading. Guided Reading allows us to work with small group of  children with similar reading abilities.  Each student had his/her mini booklet which we pactised reading together. We then played Phonetic games.   Today we worked with group 1 and 3. InshaAllah we will work with group 4 and 5 tomorrow.

Muhammad (saw) The Last Prophet HQ

The is a story of the prophet Mohammad (saw) in English. Great move for kids. I would however, skip the battles, for it might be too much for some kids.

How To Love Muhammad (PBUH) - Spoken Word Poem

The above video ties well with our Islamic Study unit: Mercy of the Prophet (saw).  In this unit the children learned the mercy of the prophet (saw) towards children and animals.
