What to teach at home? This wonderful theme on Life cycles!

TIRED OF WONDERING WHAT TO TEACH YOUR LITTLE ONES AT HOME? WHY DON’T YOU FOLLOW THIS WONDERFUL THEME ABOUT “LIFE CYCLES”

THIS POST GIVES YOU A THOROUGH OUTLINE ON WHAT TO TEACH EACH WEEK IN ALL AREAS OF LEARNING!

life cycles

Life cycles is always a popular theme in schools with children in the Early Years (EYFS). It’s all about changes and being aware that things around us change and go through their own cycle of life. Our theme which consisted of 4 weeks featuring 4 different life cycles: plant, chicken, frog and butterfly. You can take each of our weeks learning and weave them into your homeschooling year, or like us you can do them all in 4 weeks.  As usual I begin each theme with a complete overview of what we may cover. This includes our progress in Phonics and reading, maths, Qur’an, Islamic Studies. In other words we take all areas of our learning and keep going but switch it up a little with a new over arching theme. Each week was to be spent focusing on one life cycle.

WEEK 1: THE LIFE-CYCLE OF A PLANT!

We started the whole theme with the life cycle of a plant mainly because we wanted to see its real change over the weeks whilst we were still looking at other different life cycles. We went straight in with planting seeds and looking at what helps plants grow. Here are the 2 activities we did.

First up – we planted wheat grass. All you need to do is soak some wheat seeds for a few hours (this speeds up the sprouting process). Then show children the steps to planting or in our case sprouting seeds. We filled our containers with a thin layer of soil, followed by sprinkling a handful of the pre-soaked wheat. We finished by spraying the soil with water. The spraying of water should continue 3 or 4 times a day (maybe less for those in non-desert land). Basically ensure the soil is moist. After a few days you’ll start noticing roots and even some shoots. It’s amazing watching the process with the kids.

Our second Science activity also required observation but it was a matter of hours before we noticed some changes. We wanted to see how water transports through plants to help keep them alive. We simply added coloured water to a clear plastic cup and snipped a white flower from our bouquet and popped it into the cup. The flowers start colouring within a few hours. I’d suggest a 1/4 full cup and a few drops of food colouring. We followed up with as Art session, an observational drawing of our flower, of course this was also to remind ourselves of what the flower looked like before the water travelled up the stem into the petals.

Literacy:

We continue focusing on our phase 3 phonics this week. Our 4-5 yr olds looked at sound /ee/. As usual I begin with a powerpoint introducing the sound /ee/. We don’t do any writing on this day. We just get familiar with the sound. We look at and attempt to read words with the /ee/ sound. Here’s a little of what we did. Our 3-4 yr olds practised the sound /v/ this week and it fit in perfectly with our topic on plants.

Numeracy: 

In Numeracy, we focused on Number bonds to 10. It required a lot of practical working out and understanding and it is something we definitely will be reviewing over again. However the basic concept was understood by most of the children.

Arabic & Islamic Studies:

In Islamic Studies this month we decided to look at Allah’s name. We felt this fit in perfectly with the whole 4 month theme on life cycles. So this week we looked at Allah’s name al-khaaliq. We found the perfect craft as inspired by Gemma at Our Muslim Homeschool. We introduced Allah as the creator of all things. We then looked at how we write Allah’s name in Arabic and made a poster using nature!

WEEK 2: THE LIFE-CYCLE OF A CHICKEN!

This was a lovely week as we had arranged a trip to the farm for learning through experience. You can easily tie in a farm trip or work around this topic after a visit to the farm. We decided to arrange our trip after a few days of learning. So we started by looking through the life-cycle of a chicken in the books we had and a video of a chick hatching. To help the children remember the life-cycle of a chicken we followed up with this paper plate life cycle of a chicken craft. To prepare for our trip to the farm we also squeezed in a baking activity with the children the day before the trip.We made chocolate filled dough balls!

At the Farm Trip – we enjoyed feeding the chickens, looking at the chicks, collecting duck and quail eggs at the farm.

Literacy:

We looked at the /ai/ sound this week with our 4-5 yr olds and had an exciting session with our 3-4 yr olds learning all about the sound /j/ by making jelly!

Numeracy:

Pur 3-4 yr olds practised counting amounts, ordering numbers and matching numbers to amounts. Our 4-5 yr olds enjoyed practical addition week.

Arabic & Islamic Studies:

I love to see what the girls are learning in Arabic each week. Ammarah was able to use the fab letter connectors by ilmproject to write our names. Hibah was super proud of her art work 🙂

In Islamic Studies we looked at Allah’s name – al-Musawwir – the fashioner, the one who shapes us. After introducing the name to the children we read a story about how Allah creates everything from the sea creatures to the plants to all of us too. We discussed how everything is formed in different shapes and sizes. To follow up we made our own clay pots and shaped our pots. It was a very important session where we discussed how we couldn’t actually make a bird or a plant as only Allah was the creator.

WEEK 3: THE LIFE-CYCLE OF A FROG!

In this week, we looked at the life-cycle of a frog. We started with looking through our life cycle of a frog book and a power point found on twinkl. The children then helped order the life-cycle of a frog figurines we had, looking at photographs and close ups of each stage. They also made their life cycle of a frog wheel by cutting and sticking and putting the stages and labels in the correct place using a lovely template from Twinkl. Our younger learners made paper plate frogs! One of my fave activities this week was our origami jumping frog race!

Literacy:

We looked at the sound /oa/ this week, it fit in perfectly as we also looked at the word toad and explained how it belongs to the family of amphibians along with frogs. Our younger learners looked at the letter Zz this week and enjoyed making their craft.

Numeracy:

This week we introduced take-away in Numeracy. We used the theme of frogs to help us understand take-away. We made up stories of frogs jumping off lilly pads and counted out how many were left.

Arabic & Islamic Studies:

In Islamic Studies we continued with learning about Allah’s names and focused on Allah’s name al-Wahaab. Allah is the one who gives. In order to understand this we thought about how much Allah gives even to those who don’t thank him. So we made a card for our mums, the give them a card and make them happy!

In Arabic the children have been continuing learning about letter forms, how to make letters using the different forms of letters depending on where they are in the word.

WEEK 4: THE LIFE-CYCLE OF A BUTTERFLY!

Our final week of life-cycles consisted of revisiting the life-cycle of a butterfly, a project Ammarah, Hibah and I did over the summer holidays in England. For more on that click here. We began the week as usual looking at our lifecycle of a butterfly book but this time Ammarah was able to present with my help our experience of growing butterflies at home. The rest of the children looked through the pictures of our caterpillars when they arrived and how they grew so big, eventually forming into chrysalis and then transforming into butterflies.

We followed up our learning by making our butterfly life-cycle wheels using paper plates, paper butterfly folding craft, tissue paper butterfly and butterfly symmetry art.

Literacy:

A little look at our Phonics learning this week. We begin by introducing the sound with an action and looking at how the letters it contains: /oo/ I usually draw some pictures like below and allow the children to guess what I’ve drawn before they attempt to write the words on their own. I only help by drawing sound buttons. Then together we sound and spell the words. By the end of the week, the children attempt to write captions or sentences. We focus on finger spaces more than punctuation although I have started showing them how it should be written.

Numeracy: 

We continued take-away this week too and brought out our butterfly symmetry match puzzles as well. After a little recap of take-away using our practical methods, cubes and lego bricks, the children were able to solve their Butterfly Subtraction Puzzle which I found on Twinkl.

Arabic & Islamic Studies: 

In Islamic Studies we continued with Allah’s names and looked at Allah’s name ar-Razzaaq – the provider. We talked about how Allah provides for all the creatures and plants and people in this world even when they do not ask. We celebrated the end of this theme by having a party, where all the children brought in some finger food. This also allowed us to talk about how Allah provides for us through others too. Our rizq or provision is in Allah’s hands.

I adore every single plan for every single week! You have put so much though, so much effort, so much love and affection into these lesson plans I wish I could hug you to show you some appreciation for all that you do for your children! You;re making it fun for them! There is literally no difference to being at home to being in school! I think its so beautiful it really melts my heart. I hope they love and grow to appreciate this in years to come. I just know that they will!

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)

Let us increase in His remembrance, immerse in nature and His creation and ponder and reflect as we are instructed to in the Quran.

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!

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!
