Taking it easy- dealing with everything and everyone. Ameen waiyyak.<br /><br />How are you guys??<br /><br />Baraka'Allaahu'Feekum for inquiring about me *hugs* miss you guys muchUmm Suhailahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11101820855062952986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1092922087217340529.post-81164137171129376092012-02-09T22:28:27.541+03:002012-02-09T22:28:27.541+03:00Alaikum salaam Y Akhawaat for the kind words and e...Alaikum salaam Y Akhawaat for the kind words and encouragement.<br /><br />Umm Sara, lol I am sure she really does not know the meaning of Exams yet!!! And its best that she does not know. She thinks its fun and let it be Insha Allaah! I am glad you liked the Exam Paper : )<br /><br />Nice to know your kids do not trouble you with computer. : ) I have no choice sometimes because I know Maimoonah misses her relatives back at home and when they come on skype then I allow her to chat cos she needs to have that bond too. But I do limit it as I know if they get addicted its will be a big problem. I see the signs now and am more careful and mostly I use skype on my mobile! The positive thing is her spellings have improved : )<br /><br />Umm Sumayya, no I do not assess her with worksheets like exams in school as I feel it is not the best way to do. Every 6 weeks we take a break and we do revision at that time and find some other workbooks for her age that I have bought and kept. And go through the work done for that 6 weeks. <br /><br />I agree with your husband's concern which is my concern too. I have seen and heard many do not have good hand writings in the west, unlike in our part of the world. I am very careful and limit this only for a once in a week for few mints. Wa iyyaaki, glad the Arabic resources helped you, Alhamdulillaah!<br /><br />Umm Suhailah how are you? Was wondering where have you disappeared? Hope everything is ok with all of you. Jazzakillaah Khayr, yes she is back to normal Alhamdulillaah now.Umm Maimoonahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02862884358504802990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1092922087217340529.post-33262193497451038642012-02-09T02:23:52.116+03:002012-02-09T02:23:52.116+03:00Bismillaah

Great work Umm Maim...Bismillaah<br /><br />As Salaamu Alaiki<br /><br />Great work Umm Maimoonah and Maimoonah :)<br />Maimoonah is progressing along nicely Mashaa'Allaah<br />I just read your last post- Inshaa'Allaah she is feeling betterUmm Suhailahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11101820855062952986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1092922087217340529.post-90187677979758595802012-02-09T01:02:34.928+03:002012-02-09T01:02:34.928+03:00MashAllah, well done.
SubhanAllah, my kids dont k...MashAllah, well done.<br /><br />SubhanAllah, my kids dont know what exam is yet lol. Do you have specific days to assess her? I try to have kind of assessment day every 4 weeks, like a revision day. But nothing formal, no worksheets. Try to use yours sometime inshaAllah.<br /><br />Oh my girls both use MS word, they write letters to my parents, sisters and a brother, insert pictures and shapes. choose a color for shapes etc. This is without us introducing them to MS word. They pick up by trying and exploring. But then their dad was saying it is way too early to let them start using Word. they might lose interest in handwriting and we should focus more in natural handwriting :). (A lot of English kids have awful handwriting, so I guess he has a point. And the older they get, they would be more curious about all the technology out there and more inclined to learn, less inclined to do handwriting as there is no need subhanAllah). <br /><br />Also JazakAllah khayr so much for your links on Arabic more post. Like I said, we have been using a couple of auido vocab and audio book pages. We have also printed the collection of story books via one of your link. SubhanAllah, the books are so awesome. We have complete collection of living books/whole books in Arabic for free. and it has helped Sumayya to make a BIG progress with her Reading and vocab. Every day Abu Sumayya reads aloud about an hour to them in Arabic and kids both love those books and memorizing the words willingly. I intend to write more on this soon inshaAllah. I am so glad I found those books (there are more than 20 in the collection) through your blog sister :)ummsumayyahttp://raisingsahabas.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1092922087217340529.post-5558840341417722492012-02-08T23:00:38.016+03:002012-02-08T23:00:38.016+03:00MashaAllah, nice job you guys.
SubhanAllah, she is...MashaAllah, nice job you guys.<br />SubhanAllah, she is acting like a big schoolgirl asking for exams :)<br />I really liked the test sheet, inshaAllah we will use them when kids are ready.Jazakillahu khair.<br /><br />Sarah also enjoys reading together with Maimoonah alhamdulillah. And I can see how much work Maimoonah can do on the computer after seeing her interest in typing. My kids only sit and use computer when we read together with Maimoonah, other than that they don't use any computer : ) <br /><br />Hugs for Maimoonah from us.UmmSarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02416090574374186082noreply@blogger.com
