Here how we sorted animals by Halal and Haram grade. This time we didn't sort all cards, A only sort best for fim known animals. Before we sorted all cards from http://www.smartark.com/ and we had 3 level halal , haram wich I learned about them from this book (it is in russian only) and unknown for me.

And I wanted sorting game by habitats. This idea came me from here. I made only 3, for farm animals, African animals and Australian animals. But also can be play this sorting game with world map and put animals figurines on it inshaAllah. For example Panda in Chine (Asia) Penguin in Antarctica etc.

I cut all kids help me with gluing.

A painted.

I added trees for Giraffe and Coala and lake for Hippopotamus.

We have not Australian animals i found cards from http://www.activityvillage.co.uk/.

I printed them , this time i didn't want cards thats i prepared some egg carton for using them made animals to stand inshaAllah. Kids'll cut and glue to carton inshaAllah.

Alhamdulillah this week and last week we read a lot of animals books.

Books from last week.

These were best for us. 

These are for this week.

These 2 in Finnish for M

This is so nice for learning animals habitats and good for math too, alhamdulillah.

In side the book.

Every numbers under the animals tell you how many that kind of animlas you must spot from pictures.

And some puzzles!

Also sometimes we play with A sorting animals by food for example, Cow eats grasses  and Dog eats meat etc.

And sorting by numbers legs, for example Horse , Donkey have 4 legs and Hen , Bird have 2 legs etc.

For  ocean animals A plays only puzzle.

Last week was mostly rainy thats why I chose anoter theme rain and water cycle and we did some experiment. 

It was also good for story Prophet Nuh alaihis salam, because there is also rain, but bad rain for kuffar astagfirullah Allahummasta'ana.

This picture old, A played his toys after learning about Nuh alaihis salam story when he was 2 alhamdulillah.

Ok what we did first we read book this book many times, it was A's favorite.

And this book from http://www.islam4kids.com/i4k/i4k.cfm?scn=ar&ID=34.

A's favorite was also umbrella!

Activities from here.

Dua for this theme from here.

Our experimenting , heating 2 pans, 1 of them with water and other without.

Then I add water.

Then we use cotton balls to cover bailing pan.

The water in the black pan starting to become little.

We can see evaporation, all steam had gone into the air. I explained to A like this all water after rainfall go to the air inshaAllah.

We can see steam here too.

A tried to feel wet here.

We opened next pan.

A touched .

For more interesting let him paly with his own rain in next time)

A liked experimenting.

Then we tried this, boiled water.

Example for precipitation.

I prepared some craft for kids.

Easy craft for kids.

Also can be useful sister Umm an Numan's File folder game.

And Allah's Creation: Water from Islamic Educational Resources.

 From Sister Ummu Kareem's clay we made this one kids help me, jazaki Allah khair sister. 1 form and 1dot can be use for making 3 letters mashaAllah , how Allah made arabic letters easy to learn subhanaAllah.

For letter KHA we learned new words asmaul husna "al Khaliq".

 Allah Khaliq kullu shay, Allah khalaq matar. And another one" Khubz" bread.

This is montessori cards, they are so nice for our theme too. Where things come from.

A likes story books, from app istorybooks we read more time "Little red Hen". It is also good for bread theme, kids'll understand how not easy to make bread inshaAllah.

When I'm making bread A helps me.

A's bread).

Playing in outdoor.

I drew 2 Ha and Kha houses. A had to jump to correct house when I pronounce words with ha or kha.

Giving star if he done correctly.

If he did incorrect we take away one star.

In the end of the game we count all correct answers, if he has more corrects then incorrects so he is winner.

I drew road too.

A practicing to ride.

In revision week we went some places where some water how A says.)

And we were in Suomenlinna.

We saw one bid ship.

Alhamdulillah now good summer time starting!

At home A made his big ship from lego.

He made 2 but i only took 1 picture.

Alhamdulillah like this we spent our 2 weeks.

Some new activities

Assalaamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh!


Alhamdulillaah we`ve enjoyed very sunny days in Finland! So we have been lots of outside; Z has driven by his bicycle etc. But we have also found some new activities alhamdulillaah! I introduce them now in a short way...

Z`s work: a ladybug.

 

Kids made with their dad a police station by Lego blocks.

 

I found a puzzle about the life cycle of butterfly from second hand. SubhaanAllaah I wanted something like that for Z, but them were too expensive and then I found this from second hand! Alhamdulillaah! This thema interests Z a lot!

 

 

I found also good pictures about the life cycle of butterfly from S`s school book called "Pisara 2, tehtäväkirja".

 

I found also another montessori-style and educational toys. Z likes them a lot!

 

Especially tangram!

 

In the first day we got the tangram, our challenge was, how to put the blocks back to the box. Z wanted to do it again and again many times :)!

 

S made this heart by herself.

 

And I made a fox.

 

This is also one of Z`s favorites. It`s interesting to see horse`s bones.

 

 

Especially this one! The bone in the tail is quite short, subhaanAllaah!

 

Z has also learnt by himself that he brings the toys back to the shelf before taking new one. MaaschaAllaah!

 

We`ve studied some things about bees too. I think that a bee is a really important animal, because there is a whole surat named by a bee. We listened that surat from here !

 

Have a nice summer inshaaAllaah!
