In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
The Islamic education class for toddlers (1-4 years) began with greeting the kids with Assalamoalaikum and the kids greeted back with Walaikumusalam or their own version of the greeting.
Quran Time
The toddlers revised Surah Fatiha, Surah Naas and Surah Ikhlas by reciting themselves or, in the case of younger ones, listening to their mothers repeating after the audio recitation.
Arabic Time
The kids revised the first 3 Arabic letters (Alif, Baa, Taa) and were introduced to the fourth letter Thaa. Then they danced to their favorite Arabic Letters Song, “again” and “again”.
Next they revised the Arabic numbers from 1 to 5 and listened to the number song in Arabic.
Lesson Time
The main lesson of the day was about Masjid, the house of Allah. The children were shown pictures of the most important Masjids in Islam and were told about the etiquette of entering a Masjid and what to do there. This lesson was further reinforced with the Upsy Daisy song by Yusuf Islam and friends. The mothers had been given copies of the lyrics to sing along with the kids.
Duas Time
The toddlers were reminded of saying Bismillah before eating and drinking and saying Alhamdulillah when finished. They when introduced to the Islamic etiquette of drinking water and were given a handout with colorful illustrations of a child drinking water sitting down, with his right hand, saying Bismillah and drinking in three sips. Everyone was given a cup of water to practice with in class.
Worksheets
The children were given a coloring worksheet for letter Tha and a connect the dots Arabic numbers worksheet.
