Dear Parents,

Since we had a short class, I only reviewed the letter Jeem and Surah Al Ikhlas.
No homework for next week however please make sure that your child keep practicing Surah Al Ikhlas. In my opinion let them listen couple times before going to bed.

Dear Parents,

Today we administered our first test of the semester. I've graded the test papers and results are available on Thinkwave for your viewing. Class average is 92.5%. There was a 10 point bonus question on the test. That's why some students received grades higher than 100%.

We've also did first Kahoot of the semester as a preparation for the test. Students seemed to enjoy it. So, we'll likely do it again in the near future. Winners for today's Kahoot were: (1)Nameer (2)Hania (3)Adeel and Arsalan. These students received bonus points for their test scores in the amount of 5, 4, and 3 (based on their rankings).

At the end of the class we started covering "Details of Salah" from Salah book (pages 18-19). 

Homework for Oct 29th: Read pages 18 and 19 of the salah book and learn kinds of salah and essentials of salah. A copy of these pages are attched to this udpate in case you don't have the book.

Assalamu Alaikum: Today I listened to students recite verses 1-19 of Surah Al-Alaq for the second round of homework 4. Most did better thanl last time although only a few got the perfect score. I adjusted the grades for previous HWs based on their performance today, and most should benefit from it (inshallah).

We will have Test 1 (reciting complete Surah Al-Alaq) next week on October 29; please encourage your children to continue practicing the memorization so they do good in the test (inshallah).

Please also note that the Surah Al-Alaq Presentation is on Nov 5. However, your child is ready to present it next week, they are more than welcome to do so. They still should submit the Outline 3 (please see the attached handout for more details).
