Module 1 roundup

The current class have finally completed the Myself theme. All 8 little khalifahs had fun learning about themselves, their bodies and their five senses. Here are some photos of the kids in action.

 Little Aisyah using the Rhythm Sticks. It's everyone's favourite.
 Little Mua'amar did some colouring


The sweet smelling flower that we did for 'My sense of smell' class. The little khalifah learnt about good
smells and bad smells.
 We learned about emotions in our 'My Feelings' class.

Little Aida with the binoculars that we made in 'My Sense of Sight' class where afterwards we had a fun game of 'I spy' and the kids used their binoculars to spy for the things.

Looking forward to a more productive Module 2 with these kids. The theme for Module 2 will be The More We Get Together. Basically we will learn about our families. See you on the 30th April!!!

Why join playgroups and why choose ALIMKids playgroup.

Why playgroups are good for children
Playgroups are great fun! Your young child will get to sing, dance, try new art and craft activities, share experiences, and mix with other young children. While your child is busy painting a masterpiece, your child will also be picking up valuable new skills and experiences. These include:
  •  learning to play with other children
  • experiencing new play and art opportunities
  • finding out more about the world and other people
  • experiencing books and music
  • improving problem-solving abilities.
Why playgroups are good for parents
Playgroups are a good opportunity for parents to:
  • make new friends
  • reduce isolation
  • share concerns, ideas and experiences
  • learn from other parents.

Why ALIMKids.

A thematic approach.
The themes that we use are practical and familiar to the children. We use the themes to relate them to basic knowledge like alphabets, numbers and science.

English medium is used in our playgroup.
Children's brains are like sponges. It is capable of absorbing a lot of things in the least amount of time. A language can be easily absorbed by the child if they are exposed to it. Of course using it at home occasionally could enhance their usage in the language too. In the sessions, children are encouraged to respond in English.

Khalifah method
The children will be introduced to islamic phrases,akhlaq, doas, prayers, and the five pillars of islam. The children will be refered to little khalifahs and learn how to be good khalifahs.

Arts and Crafts.
In each class, we will have an  arts and crafts session. This gives the children a chance to explore their creative sides and at the same time improve the motor skills and

Body movement activities
Activities such as singing and dancing not only is fun but is a great learning tool for the children. Children not only gain knowledge from the songs but also learn to follow rhythm and instructions.

ALIMKids PJ: Preview Day Review

Syukur alhamdulillah. The preview day went well. Although a bit chaotic since I underestimated the number of people coming. But alhamdulillah for the turn out.

Unfortunately I wasn't in the pink of health but I've managed to squeeze what voice I have left to conduct the session yesterday. I'm paying the price today but it's all worth it.

We started the session with Al-fatihah recitation and of course the 'Good morning' song. We had the taaruf session using the rolling ball activitiy. I've also decided to use the 'My Body' topic for the preview session. I used the "My Body" book and actions for them to name the bodyparts.

It is expected that the kids are shy and some seem not willing to participate but when the rhythm sticks came out everyone happily played with the sticks. I've decided to use the "we are muslims" song for the kids to hit the sticks to.

I have to admit the arts and crafts were a bit chaotic due to the number of people came and the lack of stationeries (this will be recitified soon) But with a maximum of 10 kids in a session it would be more managable. I think yesterday we had around 12 or 13 kids.

The kids were engrossed with the colouring and when I announced that a star would be stamped on the finished product they were excited to show me and willingly name the body parts.

I wanted to do the 'walking,walking' song as the physical activity for the day but time did not permit me to do so. For story time I've decided to use the book "who is ALLAH" which I think complements the sesi taaruf that we had earlier in the session. The session ended with stickers for everyone and syukur alhamdulillah 7 parents have reserved their spots for the upcoming classes.

I would like to thank those who came and my apologies for any shortcomings. I welcome all your comments to make the session more enjoyable and beneficial to all.

I hope to see everyone soon!!!!
