السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
Alhamdulillaah, this is the preschool companion book to My Morning Book:
This book covers the basic skills that preschool children learn during the school year and includes Islaamic concepts that are age appropriate insha'Allaah. Children will learn some short ad'iyah, learn about different prophets of Allaah, and become familiar with other Islaamic concepts such as caliphah, jannah, and obedience to Allaah, His Final Messenger (sallallaahu alayhi wa salam), and our parents.
Because preschool children learn by moving and doing, it is not recommended that the activities in this book take longer than 2-5 minutes. Additionally, the activities are meant to be completed with assistance from a teacher/teacher-parent, although some children may be able to complete several of the activities independently. This may be especially helpful when homeschooling children of different ages - the littlest will have his/her own "work" to do as well alhamdulillaah!
Children will have the opportunity to explore the following concepts insha'Allaah:
- Becoming familiar with some of the prophets of Allaah
- Becoming familiar with some notable figures in Islaamic history
- Learning some short ad'iyah
- Colours
- Shapes (there are shapes for the child to cut and paste onto the morning book pages. These shapes are located at the end of the file.)
- Numbers 1-10
- Handwriting practice
- Different and Same
- Counting to determine how many in a set
The pages in the book are also not meant to be taught in sequential order because it is not recommended that the English alphabet be taught in order( a-z). Several letters have similar features which can lead to children easily confusing the letters that share a similar shape/curve/etc. Letters such as M and N, B and D, E and F are a few examples (this confusion can be compounded when children begin learning the lower case form of the letters).
Also, like My Morning Book, the pages of the Preschool Morning Book fit very conveniently into a three-ring binder for easy access and storage alhamdulillaah. Lastly, some of the wonderful Islaamic in the book is courtesy of Easel & Ink (may Allaah reward the sisters and accept from them their efforts and work).
