What to teach at home? This fantastic theme on Houses & Homes!

Tired of wondering what to teach your little ones at home? Why don’t you follow this wonderful theme all about “Houses & Homes!

This post give you a thorough outline on what to teach each week in all areas of learning!

Houses and Homes – as simple as this theme sounds, there’s a lot of exciting activities and learning to be done. We spent 3 weeks on this theme, and as usual here is an over view of what we planned to learn (I tend to find planning one of these before the theme, really helps linking in the progress of learning too) followed by our display wall and books to be used this theme.

Week 1: What are houses made of?

We started this week with the story of ‘The Three Little Pigs.’ I think it perfectly captures the elements of materials, building homes and which of these homes was the strongest! After reading and discussing the story we were able to think about the different materials these homes were made of.  So in Arts/Craft, the children decorated 3 houses straw, sticks and layering bricks (brown paper shaped bricks). 

We also practised our cutting skills to design our own homes using this lovely pre-made resource from Twinkl. This was a great activity to understand all the different parts a house may need. A roof to make sure we don’t get wet, windows to let the light in and a door to let ourselves in.

From this session and my 2.5 yr old Hibah’s excitement in dressing up as a builder I decided to make a builder’s site role play area with a desk for the Architect too. See below for more.  The role play area includes safety hats and visor jackets from our dress up box (You can buy the simple visor jackets at IKEA too). I used some old biscuit and cereal boxes which I wrapped in brown paper to make bricks. I put out all things related to building including lego, lego duplo (the home version), blocks and even foam blocks we had bought in. I covered a McDonald’s paper drink holder with foil and stuck a label and instantly made a tool box. I found a lot of my construction Area labels on Twinkl and added some material type labels too (wood, plastic, glass etc). The kids thoroughly enjoyed this! (We still have it set up as I write this).

We also had a little small world play with wooden furniture. The children enjoyed organising this into the correct rooms. You can do this with Doll’s furniture or even have an Ikea Magazine at hand and make it into a craft activity where children are finding all the furniture and sorting them into the correct rooms. This was something we did last year – see the display wall picture above for more details.

img_20171030_224203_449214881982.jpg

In science this week, we looked a little closely at materials and went on a material hunt around our room and sorted all the materials into the correct categories. This is a great way to start teaching materials.

Literacy:

This week in Literacy we were moving on from the alphabet learning and beginning our phase 3 phonics. For our 4-5 yr olds, we looked at the sound “zz”. We used this lovely Roll and Read sheet to focus on reading the different words with the sound zz in them. We ended the week with a review in our Sound ‘zz’ booklet also from Twinkl.

img_20171030_221259_1901737985230.jpgimg_20171103_105727_5871621168828.jpg

Above: Our 3-4 year olds focused on initial sounds and a review of the letters we already knew this week. We used these pegs to also practise our final motor skills.

Maths:

This week was all about measuring. We started by measuring using blocks, lego etc. Then moved on to a measuring tape using the inches side (especially has the numbers are bigger and easier to read). The children decorated their own inches rule which we laminated for them ready to use the next day. The went around the room looking for things that measure more than 5 inches and less than 5 inches, just to get them into the habit of measuring.  By the end of the week the 4-5 year olds were measuring these.

img_20171103_110313_133466435359.jpg

Arabic & Islamic Studies:

Islamic Studies this week was learning and talking about the duas (supplications/prayers) we recite before we enter and leave the house. The children began by repeating them after us, then practising through role plays. Finally we helped them make these awesome dua door hangers. For Arabic the 4-5 yr olds moved onto letter forms using play dough to show how the letter stretch out as hands to join on to the following letters.

Week 2: The homes and buildings around us!

This week was all about observing our own environment and realising that there are other useful buildings in our area too. We also looked at the different types of homes people live in all over the world – we used some awesome Twinkl powerpoints to help us look at igloos, mud houses, boat houses and much more.  (I would definitely recommend Twinkl). We also arranged our first ever nursery trip, a nice and simple one – a walk around our local area! I edited a Local Walk Observation Sheet (from Twinkl) so that children could really observe their surroundings. It was a hot morning, but we did enjoy a little trip to the park and had our fruit time picnic there too! With this age group, the whole trip lasted about 1 hour and 20 mins. We had about 11 children and 4 adults with us. The children had a lot of fun!

We also made 3d house models (Twinkl) which were a bit tricky for our kids but with an adults help and their superb decorating they turned out beautiful! We placed them on our Ikea town rug and talked about where each type of building would be.

img_20171108_230854_3461459653445.jpg

To finish the week we even had a chance to look at animal homes, again using a lovely powerpoint from Twinkl followed by a look at where Sarah, Percy and Bill live in the Owl Babies – one of their fave books!

Literacy:

This week our children worked so hard on their new sound “ch” – what an amazing achievement that together they wrote out this caption for the picture I had drawn on the board. We looked a little at finger spaces and how words only make sense when they have some space around. Our younger kids of 3-4 yr olds moved onto letter formation! 🙂

We used our chunky chalk outside in the park on the day of our trip!

Maths:

We focused on shape this week. Reviewing over our 2d shape and looking closely at 3d shape. Some of our activities included: cutting around 2d shape, sorting and tracing 2d shape. Sorting and matching 3d shape and building towers and building using 3d shape. This was a great way to practise the name of the shapes too.

Arabic and Islamic Studies:

The younger group continued their Arabic letter a week activities – this week focusing on the letter jeem for jazr (carrots). Alhamdulillah we continue with teaching the Quran to the children daily – upto 1 ayat a day. The children have memorised quite a few short surahs from the Quran, with just 15 mins of practise each day. This is something we continue regardless of theme or day – alhamdulillah!

Week 3: Inviting someone to our home!

This lovely week was all about how we invite someone to our home and how we prepare for them when they come. We spoke about the importance of having guests and did some role-playing on how to treat the guests when they come to our house. We began the week by reading the lovely story of The “Tiger who came to Tea.”

We decided to hold our own Tea Party and started by making our invitations and inviting all the parents to the nursery. We even pretended to be at the post office and stuck on 1st class stamps before posting the invitations into our red letterbox (loaned to us by a friend)!

20171112_1322251155555051.jpg

We merged some of our sessions of Maths and English and focused on baking all our treats the day before the parents arrived! Below: the younger children helped me make puff pastry cinnamon and nutella chocolate swirls! 🙂 The older children 4-5 yr olds help us make chocolate chip biscuits and fairy cakes!

The day of the tea Party arrives – and the children begin with a fantastic greeting in Arabic and English (pre-rehearsed of course) and recite some Quran they memorised! They then help serve the mums and enjoy their yummy Tea Party treats. This is such a lovely way to get children into helping when guests arrive and encouraging them on how to behave too.  Here is how we decorated everything in the end!

Literacy:

We covered a new sound “sh” this week with our 4-5 yr olds, and also recapped sounds ch and sh together! We also attempted to sound out and copy the words to help us with our invitation writing this week!

letter role play post

Maths:

A lot of the Maths we looked at this week was about counting and number. I even managed to put up this 100 square on our door to help us look at larger numbers! Why not 1-20 has become to easy. I don’t think we should limit the children to the age specifics, but stretch them and see how far they can connect the dots!

20171114_130008454964490.jpg

Arabic and Islamic Studies:

Our Arabic this week was all about welcoming the guest to our home so the children learnt a welcome poem and welcomed our guests so beautifully. In Islamic Studies, we focused on the lovely powerpoint I found on Twinkl titled ‘Be my Guest’ It’s a story based in the life of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) where he advised a Muslim to take home the poor person and feed him. When he got home his wife said there wasn’t much food only that which she saved for the kids. They still sacrficed the little they had to feed their guests. And that’s what we did in our role play with our children. It really was lovely helping them realise that sharing and sacrificing for others is full of reward from Allah.

So that was pretty much our 3 weeks on Houses & Homes and what an eventful 3 weeks it was! We ended with a lovely Tea party to practise and celebrate all that we accomplished. Hope you enjoyed looked over our theme and please let me know if you plan to do this theme any time soon!

The Hajj Game 🕋 - one of our oldest resources w The Hajj Game 🕋 - one of our oldest resources which we bring out every year. I remember writing out the questions and asking my dad about the hajj rituals (he was a Hajj tour guide for many years mashaAllah) and he thought it was such a clever way to teach the kids about hajj. 
.

.
It’s a must have game to include in your child’s learning about the 5th pillar of Islam. Check it out www.mamateachesme.com - the game printable can be bought as a pdf or it’s included in the Hajj Activity book! (Free for our members)
.
.
We found it best to use a ruler to tear out the pages in our activity book (large scissors ✂️ does not help all the way)

As the month of Dhul Hijjah approaches, let’s co As the month of Dhul Hijjah approaches, let’s connect with Allah swt by sacrificing our desires and slowing down - reflecting and contemplating on His signs. 
.
.
Let us increase in His remembrance, immerse in nature and His creation and ponder and reflect as we are instructed to in the Quran. 
.
.
In our fast paced, info overloaded world, how are you slowing down? What distractions are stopping you from reflecting on Allah’s Signs?

Alhamdulillah we had a lovely garden picnic with o Alhamdulillah we had a lovely garden picnic with our friends yesterday. Hibah has been asking for a picnic for ages and it was perfect inviting over our friends too to show them our new secret garden.

I was so glad the kids were up for re-potting my plants and they did such a wonderful job mA. We also included some of our fruit peels in the garden bed which is yet to be finished- but Alhamdulillah all in all a wonderful afternoon with even better company! Who doesn’t enjoy a whole day outside in nature!!?

The life cycle of a plant 🌱 🌼 . Simple acti The life cycle of a plant 🌱 🌼 
.
Simple activity on finding the stages of the life cycle of a dandelion - the girls went into the garden to find the different stages. They enjoyed learning about seed dispersal and found dandelion growing in different places and we discussed how the seeds could have reached on top of a roof or the guttering. 
.
The girls had to then write the stages from the perspective of the flower which they actually enjoyed! Same activity just differentiated by supporting Hibah, whilst Ammarah worked independently.

Dinosaurs have always been a favourite of Hibah’ Dinosaurs have always been a favourite of Hibah’s and now that she enjoys reading somewhat (Alhamdulillah) she wanted to re-read her dinosaur book and from that we went into some spoken poetry and then the start of her poem which was very catchy and we all joined in! 
.
.
Hibah (who just turned 8) has been a bit of reluctant reader. Although she likes books and likes listening to stories, she just wasn’t as bothered with reading. Maths on the other hand was more her thing but as time went on, she had to read word problems or questions in order to understand the question and that’s when she was fine to read. So, for so long her journey towards reading has been one in which she navigated herself mainly because I didn’t want to put her off reading altogether, so we went at her pace. It certainly was very different to her elder sister, Ammarah’s journey. Having said that she’s picked up words faster and comprehends well. She’s full of creative ideas and never falls short in plot twists and interesting characters for her oral or written short stories! Will be sharing more on this soon. 
.
Do you have a reluctant reader at home? How do you encourage them to connect with stories or books without putting them off reading altogether? 
.
P.s if you listen to the end you can hear Nusaybah too 😃 mashaAllah

On Motherhood - Giving birth after 7 years feels On Motherhood - 

Giving birth after 7 years feels like we are new parents again, except this time a little calmer and perhaps wiser. No doubt the challenges will still be waiting for us, but we got used to being parents and are mentally prepared and accepting of life with kids and babies. For first time parents it’s a whole other ball game. There’s a lot of growing up to do - fast! Being responsible for a tiny human is a huge deal but there’s so much love and self growth to take from it. 
.
Motherhood takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions, inner battles, identity crisis and more - it challenges us in every way but Alhamdulillah with it comes tiny mini versions of ourselves - the ultimate way we are tested to continue on our journeys of being better versions of ourselves! 
.
Currently, Nusaybah is nearly 3 months old Alhamdulillah- we are adjusting to life with 3 kids. She’s curious already - the girls read to her and want to include her in everything they do when relevant. They ask if she will be homeschooled too and calculate how old they will be when she is 3 or 5 etc. 
.
For so long, I was used to just 2 girls and our family felt complete Alhamdulillah, but the girls always wondered about another sibling as they saw new additions to their extended family each year. Sometimes it’s a bit surreal that Nusaybah is here with us, a blessing from Allah in every way Alhamdulillah- I think it’s a lesson that we still can’t plan or see our life only through our lens - ultimately it will be Allah’s plans that prevail - Allahu Akbar!

After our germination experiment last week we had After our germination experiment last week we had to look at the ayats in the Quran where Allah talks about the splitting of the seed.
.
Ammarah’s extra task was to write a poem based on what we found out from the Quran. A lot of the poems on nature that we have are absolutely beautiful but we need reminding that the beauty and design of nature is all from Allah. And so we reflected on the ayat from the Quran which prompted us to ponder upon the seeds that we sow. And so she included it in her poem. 
.
We loved using the beautiful Connecting with Allah book by @zacandaslam as well. Swipe to see the prompts and poetry plan.
.
.
How often do we connect with Allah through nature? Do we remember that is Allah who decides if our seeds will grow each year? Have you had a bad harvest one year? Don’t let that stop you from growing the following year - subhanAllah our rizq is from Allah!

Sometimes you just need to have a vision and the i Sometimes you just need to have a vision and the intention and then say Bismillah. Allah facilitates Alhamdulillah. 
.
This vision for a secret garden (essentially a garden space for us to be immersed in nature contemplating and reflecting on Allah’s creation - our very own sit spot) emerged in Ramadan during the Outdoor Madrassah Course I took. Unable to trek to a park with a new born, I wanted a sit spot in the garden and attract more bees and butterflies and essentially wildlife by planting our favourite plants and flowers. Being in a city/town with concrete buildings we need the greenery and to be outdoors in nature to really ponder on Allah’s signs! 
.
I’m loving our progress so far Alhamdulillah - we’ve learnt so much along the way ourselves - it’s still@not finished it’s a work in progress and I complete reminding myself to Trust the Process in sha Allah 😃
.
.
How do you spend your time in nature? Do you have a sit spot?

Germinating Seeds 🌱 . In our homeschool this Germinating Seeds 🌱 
.

In our homeschool this past week, we’ve been looking at seeds. Finding seeds in our spice drawers and larder and looking at ayaat from the Quran about seeds. (More on that soon) 
.
The girls spotted seed dispersal outside with dandelions growing in drains 😅 and our sycamore tree sending its seeds all the way to our patio (we’ve seen sycamore seedlings 🌱 in our patio pots as we were weeding) To see the process of splitting seeds, we’ve been doing this germinating experiment. Swipe to see the differentiated experiment write up.
.
.
Do you germinate seeds on paper towels before you plant in soil or do you plant straight into soil? This year we’ve been enjoying experimenting with both methods!

We’ve had a nice slow paced week to enjoy the time sowing seeds and prepare our kitchen garden on the patio.

It’s worked out perfectly with a nearly 3 month old - we are getting there slowly Alhamdulillah.

What started as a test for the family of Ibrahim ( What started as a test for the family of Ibrahim (as) in the early lands of Makkah has now become the lands to which our Ummah flocks to. It’s the land in which the final messenger (pbuh) was born, where Islam was established, the Kabah built which became our qiblah and where the annual Hajj takes place Alhamdulillah.
.
The dua of Ibrahim (as) is a testament of his foresight for his later generations and belief in Allah to change the condition of the very barren land he left his family in as a test from his Lord - subhanAllah!

Towards the end of my pregnancy this year, I was i Towards the end of my pregnancy this year, I was in full on nesting mode. We did a thorough clean when we got back to England of our cupboards and room and got rid of a lot of unnecessary junk! Cleaning videos are great inspiration to get you motivated if you need it. 
.
The kitchen cupboards also needed work and were completely disorganised with spices taking over the larder! So nesting mode continued after baby Nusaybah was born. I finally decided to tackle that larder full of spices- in fact I decided to move all the spices to a whole new location (into its own pull out drawer under the hob) and kept the dolmio and pasta bottles we recycled and instead just designed some stickers to cover up and organise the jars. 
.
It’s really transformed my cooking experience and time spent in the kitchen just because it’s all in an easy to reach location and organised! There’s a few more areas to sort still but Alhamdulillah happy with the progress so far! 
.
Have you been spring cleaning too?  Swipe to see more from our kitchen organisation. Would you like these stickers to be available in our shop?
