Assalamu
Alaikum Wa Rahmatu Allah Wa Barakatuhu
Dear
Parents,
Here are some
updates from our class.
Language
Arts: In Phonics,
we started "Jolly Phonics workbook 3" by learning the sounds of the
letters "Gg" and "Bb," Alhamdo-lillah. In workbook 3, we will
learn to recognize the third group of sounds: g,o,u,l,f,b. Also, in this
workbook, we will learn to blend simple, three letter words made up from the
sounds that we have learned so far. We will also understand how to hear the
middle sound of a word. The word list from book 2 are: Hen, Pen, Net, Hat, Can, Cap, Rat, Man, Do, Me, & Cat.
Literacy
tips:
- Read for 20 minutes with your child everyday.
- Please go to http://www.starfall.com/ at home to do some extra practice for the sounds we already covered in class.
- Play "I spy with my little eye" something that starts with ____ and say the sound of a letter (for e.g; ta..ta..ta..for letter T).
Anti- Bullying Week: The week
of Nov 18-22 was anti bullying week at Abraar School . We read
different story books about how to be a bucket filler and not to be a bucket
dipper. We also made an anchor chart as a class about bucket filling and bucket
dipping. Sk2 did an amazing job by sharing and caring throughout the week,
Masha-Allah. Good Job SK2!!!
Math: We are learning how to
write numbers in words and reviewing how to do tallies in our Math class.
Math tips: Have your
child skip count by 10’s out loud.
Science: In Science, we
have finished our unit on “States of Matter” by doing a fun experiment. We
observed the transition of matter from solid, to liquid, and then to gas. Sk2
had a blast by watching how gas is formed in a balloon.
Islamic
Studies/ Visual Arts: We
practiced the nasheed "The Five Pillars of Islam". Here is the link for
the video:
Also, we
started working on our “Five pillars of Islam File Folder game craft,” Alhumdulillah.
Jazakumullahu-khaira
for your co-operation and support!
