Math:  Last week, the class learning goals were to practice telling time to 5 minutes interval, half past(half an hour), quarter to, and quarter past.

Telling Time/ Salah Party:

Students also worked in groups to use their knowledge of telling time to an hour and quarter hour by making a schedule for the Salah Party with activities. The second day, Tr. Dina Shalabi came to our class to pick one activity from each group.She was very impressed by the great work done by all groups, MashaAllah. On Friday, students participated in the actual Salah Party where they played games and activities chosen by Tr. Dina from their group work. The activities were: Pin the door to the masjid, Put Hasanaat in the Masjid, Pass the Parcel, Treasure Hunt( students has to find salah position cards), Salah Mistakes,  Prayer Mat craft and the final activity was going to Jumma Prayer and praying on our own Prayer mat, Alhumdulilah. We also enjoyed yummy food during lunch time. The students did an excellent job keeping track of time for each activity and we actually managed to finish all activities according to the schedule planned by grade 2B students. Great Job 2Bs, MashaAllah!
