Sharing Eid 2016 with the homeless 

UPDATE: 

Only 74 more cards to go out of 180! Please consider donating if you haven’t already done so. It would mean a lot to the guests of Children of Adam who would appreciate this gesture from people. Plus, its a sweet way of giving them a helping hand without making them feel bad about themselves. Lets spoil them together 🙂 donation link is in the comments section…

The giving of Eidiyyeh/Eidi/Eid money to children (and sometimes to grown ups too!) by adults is a beautiful age old tradition in Muslim communities.
This Eid, I would like to share this tradition with the 180 guests of Children of Adam, a charity which works with the homeless.
I am looking to hand out a gift card worth ÂŁ10 to each guest giving them the freedom to shop for what they need. The gift cards will be of major stores such as Tesco, Asda and Sainsburys.
How you can help?

1. Donate ÂŁ10 towards a gift card (as many as you like) by clicking on the following link:

You will recieve a reciept too! 🙂

2. I will purchase a gift card, put it into a pouch with an Eid message and perfume the bag.
Aisha (rad) would perfume the Sadaqa she would hand out to the needy. She explained that she wanted the charity to reach in a fragrant condition to Allah before it reached the hands of the person in need. In her beautiful way, I will be doing the same thing insha Allah 🙂
I will be handing out the gift cards on the first Sunday after Eid iA.
How often are the homeless gifted with something? This is your chance to share the spirit of Eid with them and include them in this tradition of ours.

Please help me reach my target of 180 gift cards!
Donate now 🙂

Jzk!

Arabic Verbs in the past tense

Bismillah,

My year 8s, 9s and 10s are learning 20 verbs that are oft-mentioned in the Qur’an, a useful list which I can work from to help teach concepts such as conjugations in the different tenses, nouns, and keywords in the Qur’an by extension.

E.g. By learning the verb “s-j-d” سَجَدَ  I can help students with past/present tense conjugation for the different subject pronouns and help them identify nouns that are created out of this verb e.g. “masjid”. So the verb roots are really the key to making students feel confident in exploring the Qur’an.

Here is a worksheet I will be using in this week’s lesson to review

  • Past Tense conjugation
  • 20 verbs + English meaning
  • Subject pronouns

Arabic reading and writing pack

Bismillah,

Last term, Class 4 covered the following Arabic reading and writing topics:

  • Shaddah
  • Alif Maqsurah
  • Suspended Alif
  • Natural Madd – Alif, Waw and Yaa

Class 4’s teacher sent the following reading and writing pack home to help parents make revision with their children over the Winter break an easier task. Each student had to complete the worksheet under parental supervision.

I’ve been uploading the worksheets individually and thought it might also be useful to upload one Pdf with all worksheets together to make printing a little easier (double sided copying for example).

Arabic attached/possessive pronouns

Bismillah,

Here is a worksheet to help review possessive pronouns (attached pronouns). It helps students to identify the possessive in the English sentence and then translate that into the Arabic pronoun they have been taught.

I’m using this worksheet with students who need more revision on this topic and this worksheet inshallah will give them the chance to review them in a format that isn’t my usual table format.

Arabic worksheet: Short Surahs

Bismillah,

Here is a worksheet that was used in Class 6 as a test to revise topics they had learnt in Arabic class. Topics include: Keywords of Surah al-Fatiha, al-Falaq, al-Ahad and al-Nas, joining rules, arabic handwriting practice (writing the basmalah) and the sun and moon letters.

This worksheet is a glimpse at how Arabic is taught at my school i.e. mainly using short surahs/juzz Amma as a basis for learning Arabic handwriting and grammar, as well, and most importantly for learning the meaning/tafsir behind the short surahs.
