Day 57

Assalamu alaikum!

We started off our day today finishing off the letter Hh in our phonics books.  The students are really learning to take pride in their work and they are producing excellent quality work masha'Allah.  

In Quraan class the 

During period two some students got to visit the Scholastic Book Fair and purchase some books for their reading pleasure.  

We did our daily calendar routine and practiced our vowel sounds a-e-i-o-u sometimes -y.  We learned that vowels are like the glue that keep the word together and every English word has to have one or more vowels in it.  

During Arabic the students worked on the letter -thaal with tashkeel (fatha-dumma-kasra) they also worked in their text books masha'Allah.

In gym class today we did some gymnastics.  Students practiced doing motorcycle jumps, wall hand stands, rolling and somersaults mashallah.

Show and tell was lot of fun again today with a dump truck, some fridge magnets, a cool toy, a balloon, and some Kraft Dinner!  Next week's topic is SOMETHING GREY.

For art today we worked on our drama unit.  We read the story of Hansel and Gretel and the students acted our the different scenes of the story.  It was a very fun and exciting time for the students.  I am looking for the following items to help us with the props for our production.
