As a follow up of Aali Qadr Moula's TUS farman for dental hygiene, Al Madrasa held a dental check up for all students on 16th May 2013. Dr. Fatema Bapai, from Saifee Hospital Mumbai did the check up. She also gave a talk to all parents where she addressed the collective problems identified during the check-up.
Kindergarten got the sharaf of attending shafe imtehan  for half an hour during school days.
We will end the school year with the new theme 'Community Helpers.' Children will learn about the various helpers and how they work in our communities. Couple of field trips are planned for this theme.

All our children have now reached the Oxford Reading Tree Series. The level 2 and 3 are patterned structures stories. It is important for your child to observe the pictures, discuss it first before beginning to read. Your child should use their knowledge of sight words and blending 3 letter words to read. Their are also context words that you can help them out with. For more practice we urge you to read free ebooks online on Oxford Reading Tree Level 2 and 3

Have you ever considered volunteering for Friday Activity? We love to have mothers come in to help and plan a Friday Activity. If you are interested kindly make an appointment by Monday 06.05.13 with us to organise any activity. You can also form a group with other mothers in Kg 2.
The cold season also brings with it the usual flu bugs and colds. If your child is not feeling well, please keep them home so they can rest. If your child has vomited within 24 hours before they are to come to school, or has had diarrhoea, they should not attend nursery school. Children who are coughing or sneezing a lot, or have a consistently runny nose, should also stay home to avoid passing the illness on to other children.
Please remember to jot down a note in the diary if your child was absent.

 Flu Prevention:

 Help your child with the following preventions from flu!
  • Wash hands regularly
  • Don't touch your face
  • Drink plenty of fluids
  • Use a tissue when you cough or sneeze
  • Cover your mouth with your crook of your arm/elbow not with your hands when you have to cough.
Important Reminders:
Please return the folders that we send your child's monthly work covered in school.
 Please ensure you return the reading book with the record keeping card by the day stated in the card. We want your child to read as many books before the end of the year.
Karzan Hasanah cards and money will be collected every Friday.
You can send money every Friday for our school's sadaka and nazrul makam collection. This is an exercise carried out to help your child learn its importance.
Kindly send an old oversize short sleeve shirt for your child to wear during painting. Please ensure it is always in the bag for your child to use. Wash during the weekends.

Every Friday we shall have our Library Day where your child will bring a story book home. Kindly read the story to your child and return back on the next Friday without fail in order for your child to get another one. Any damaged or lost book will have to be replaced.
Special Note: "Remember to read with your child as often as possible!"
P.E. will take place every Monday. Kindly ensure that your child wears the P.E. uniform under the school uniform and comes wearing sports shoes that day.
Swimming will take place every Wednesday. Kindly make sure your child wears the swimsuit under the school uniform to save changing time. Also send arm bands and swimming cap if available. Swimming will be determined as per the weather. As the cold season hits us we shall be having P.E. instead. 
Games to help your child with reading the "sight words"
  1. Bingo! write sight words on a paper. As you call out each word ask your child to mark it.
  2. Memory Game! The traditional game of memory. Make flash cards of sight words where their are two cards of the same word. Arrange them turned down. Your child has to find its match by turning over the card.
  3. Have your child copy write with markers, chalk, crayons..etc
  4. Provide your child with an old magazine or newspaper. Tell him/her to cut out any sight words he/she can find. Or if you have a highlighter ask your child to highlight the words he finds!
  5. When you read the library book with your child sitting next to you. Encourage him/her to look for any words he/she can read.
