Our 1st Webinar

UMM UMAMAH DOING WEBINARS

In the name of Allah Most Gracious Most Merciful. With His and name and with all Praises for him, I am embarking on a new journey and new chapter in our Homeschooling journey.

WEBINARS!!!!!

With all the invaluable lessons I have learnt, through our trials and errors, successes, struggles and breakthroughs, I feel the desire to share and teach others. 

Teach and share what..... ?

• The things that I learnt the hard way the things
• I find easy but are not always that easy for others
• Things I wish someone had told me 
• Things I wish I could do if I could do it all over again. 
• Life saving tools and tricks I've learnt
• My self created lessons, activities and so much more.

So here is the very 1st Webinar I am offering, and it's FREE.

Salah Centre Revisited

PROJECT REDO

This post is my  commitment to redo the following project with my kids in a different way Inshallah. Once done I will update this post with the new pics Inshallah

NEW PROJECT

COMING SOON BEIDHNILLAH 

Salah Centre

The following project will take more than a day to finish but we started out making it today. Inshallah when finished the Salah centre will be put up on the wall in the kids room where my Lil muallims can use is as a reminder of Salah timings, keep their after Salah dua and adhkar booklets and other cards related to Salah.

I took a bristol borad and folded in a 3 parts and cut off an extra strip from the bottom to use inside the salah centre.

Next Lil Muallim # 2 choose shiny craft paper I had lying around to make the cover of the Salah Centre. The cover is actually supposed to signify Bab us Salah the door of Jannah through which those established their prayers on time will enter.

Notice the key hole and the handle? That's for what we made next.......

We made a key with golden card stock and Lil muallim # 2 stuck praying persons coloring on it..... this was to depict the hadith As salatu miftahul Jannah .....Salah is the key to Paradise.

Inside Lil Muallim # 2 stuck the salah timings clock faces around the booklet on the hadith highlighting the importance of praying on time. Check it out.

Homeschooling with Target

LOVE THESE FINDS

I love to walk through Targets $ Spot section and look for nifty things to enhance our learning experience. The following were very exciting finds! Lil Muallims have been enjoying these for quite some time now. The fact That I paid between $ 1-3 for each just makes it all the more worth it. Walhumdolillah!!!

Geography and Pollution

POLLUTING THE WORLD WITHOUT GUILT

Loved these at a local store... that also for only $2.99 

Told my kids... "This is the only time we can officially say we pollute the world everyday without feeling bad about it"

Alhumdolillah only in this case.
