Al Salamu Alaikom dear parents 

Raman Mubarak to all! 
May our fasts be accepted and may we all have a month full of good deeds Isa

today we had a test on Surat al Ghashiya .I had sent out an email 2 weeks ago that the test will be today  as it is the last day to enter grades for this quarter. However, many were unprepared. I will have to enter those grades however for those whose grades were less than 65% I do expect them to be ready with it memorized for next weeks class.

2. I have 6 semi finalists for Quran competition. I will choose 3 of them to go forward over Ramadan. Those who were chosen had expressed interest, attained the highest grades in class and have shown up to class consistently prepared. Those 6 finalists are: hamza, Safa, fabiha, tala,sofia,hadiza and Ayan. They have a choice of one of 3 to pick from: Surat al shams, shurat al ghashiya and Surat al buruj( which we will start next week isa)

those who have picked Surat al Ghashiya are safa, Ayan, hamza and fabiha 

Surat al shams: tala 

sofia , hadiza? 

3. Last thing that needs to be addressed is the disrespect being shown in class from a small group of students. It is not only hard for me to teach when I am consistently trying to correct behavior but also extremely distracting to those who are trying to learn.

This has been on going for 6 months since school has started and has been observed by the substitute teachers. I have noticed consistent use of iPads and cell phones to play games during class instruction time. When given opportunity to sit down and take time to work on material that they have not learned or memorized ,many are not putting any effort and when asked to put some effort I have received rude answers in return.

Please take the time to address these issues with your child. Cell phone and iPad use will no longer be allowed! It is to stay in their backpacks.

please feel free to reach out if you have concerns!

there is no homework due for next week so they can work on their fasting and prayers. For those who did not pass Surat al Ghashiya I do expect that they have it memorized by next week inshalla( side note we have been working on since January so I have given them plenty of time)

Assalamualaikum,

In class on March 3rd, we reviewed the memorization and meanings of all of Ayatul Kursi using the Ayatul Kursi study guide. I have linked the blank and filled copies of the study guide to this message for students that were absent or lost their copy. Students should practice the memorization and meanings for Ayatul Kursi. Next class will be review of Ayatul Kursi memorization and meanings, and then the class after the review will be the Ayatul Kursi test. 

Students practiced reading from Lessons 7 and 8 in the Noorani Qa'idah "Master Reading the Quran" book. Reading from Lessons 7 and 8 will appear on the Ayatul Kursi test, so don't forget to practice!

I gave each student an Ayatul Kursi Week 1 Worksheet for homework, also linked to this message. Don't forget to have a signature for each day of the week that the student completes this homework, so they can receive full credit! If the student loses the worksheet, they can still complete the assignment: they can just write their name, the name of the assignment, the days of the week, and the signatures for each day on any piece of paper and turn it in. 

Please feel free to email me (noorb2025@gmail.com) with any questions.

      In this weeks class the students made posters about the significance of the last 2 verses of Surah Baqarah/meanings/ benefits/how these verses were revealed. Masha Allah, they did an amazing job! I took pictures to text, you can also stop by our class when you come to pick up your kids from school, they posted their work on the walls.

there was a test on reciting the last 2 verses of Surah Al Baqarah- some of the students were not prepared. They have one more chance to recite in class on 3/10 in Shaa Allah, after this I will have to enter their grades. Help your kids memorize by playing the verses on repeat in your car when travelling with them.

I also tested them on previous lessons and gave specific feedback to work on for makeup test next week.

Students should continue to revise all the materials in their green folders, which cover the following:

Ayat ul Kursi, Surah Al Alaq, Surah Al Hashr last 3 verses, Surah Al Baqarah last 2 verses, Makharij (pronounciation of Arabic letters), stopping signs in the Quran.

I have linked the blank and filled copies of the study guide to this message for students that were absent or lost their copy.

files: Surah Ad-Duha Study Guide - Filled Copy (1) (1) (1).pdf

Assalamualaikum,

In class on February 18th, students that had not yet taken the Surah Ad-Duha test took the test. Anyone that has not taken the test yet will take it next class. Study with the Surah Ad-Duha Study Guide (linked to this message) and Lesson 6 in the Noorani Qa'idah "Master Reading the Quran" book.

Other than test makeups for those who have not yet taken the Surah Ad-Duha test, we had a fun day where students played games and ate food in class. Next class, we will start the memorization and meanings of Ayatul Kursi.

Next week is the last week I will accept the Surah Ad-Duha writing activity and Surah Ad-Duha Week 1 and Week 2 worksheets from students present in class. Details of the assignments are below.

Most students have not yet completed the Surah Ad-Duha writing activity. If I don't receive a submission from a student for this assignment, I have no choice but to give them a 0 since I have nothing to grade them on. The assignment is to write down all 11 ayas of Surah Ad-Duha on a piece of paper. Students can choose to write the surah in Arabic or write it with the English pronunciation, but, either way, it should be hand-written. Students can use the Surah Ad-Duha study guide to help with this. No need to write the translations of the ayas. For example, for the first aya, students can choose to either write وَٱلضُّحَىٰ or Wad duhaa, and then continue to do the same for the rest of the ayas. They should NOT just write "by the morning brightness," since they need to write down how the aya is pronounced in the Quran for this activity. However, students that write down BOTH the ayas of the surah and the translations of the ayas can receive extra credit. Either email me the paper or give it to me in class to receive credit for this assignment.

Students that have not yet submitted the Surah Ad-Duha Week 1 and Week 2 Worksheets should do so as soon as possible. They are linked in previous messages. Don't forget to have a signature for each day of the week that the student completes this homework, so they can receive full credit! If the student loses the worksheet, they can still complete the assignment: they can just write their name, the name of the assignment, the days of the week, and the signatures for each day on any piece of paper and turn it in. 

A few students who have been absent for many days still have not taken the Surah Ash-Sharh test yet. They will take it the next time they are in class, so don’t forget to study using the Surah Ash-Sharh study guide from previous messages!
