Dear Parents,

Language: Students practiced summarizing stories and also learned narrative writing. 

Math: We practiced division using strategies of equal groups and repeated subtraction. We also had a pop quiz on Division.

Islamic Studies: Last week, we read and discussed  " Taqwa-Allah Sees Me All the Time" and " I Fast in Ramadan". We are also practicing nasheeds for the "End of the Year "celebration.

Class Dojo Party: Grade 2 students attended a carnival in the gym as a part of their last class dojo party for the school year. There were games, face painting, henna, and plasma cars for students to enjoy and have fun. Jazak Allahu Khairun to our parent volunteers for making that event possible, Alhumdulilah! We could not have done it with out them :)

Surprise Party:The wonderful and truly amazing Grade 2B students threw a surprise party for their teacher! It was totally a surprise for me! I don't have any words to express my feelings and  emotions for the kind gesture that my students showed to me. I only want to say Alhumdulilah and may Allah (SWT) bless them all!

Have a great weekend!

Sincerely.
