Title: Teaching and Learning from an Islamic Perspective

Author: J. Ho. A. Ho, M. Khan, M. Siddiq, T. Moslih, 

Publisher: Djarabi Kitabs Publishing

For: Teachers and Parents

I've contributed to another book. This one is about teaching and learning. There's a chapter on learning, memory and the Quran, mathematics, science, reading and writing, history and special needs. The main theme is about how to include Islam into the teaching of these subjects. Each topic is written by a teacher who is experienced in this area. There are many activities that you can use or take as examples for your own lessons.

Quran Journaling Workshop

 

On October 1st 2023, at the IFAM conference, I held a Quran journaling workshop for teen girls. I wanted to introduce more Muslims to the practice of reflecting on the Quran. To my surprise, even the boys turned up and wanted to learn. Alhamdulillah. It goes to show that reflecting on the Quran and Quran journaling are activities that all can participate in.

Fast Not Food Book Review

 

Title: Fast Not Food: A Book of Shapes

Author: Jameela Ho

Format: Kindle

Age: 2-5 year old

Learn some shapes with Omar and Ehsan as they try not to eat during their fast in Ramadan.

Fast Not Food was originally a board book. It was book number 3 of a set of 5 from the Beginning to Learn Series. It was printed in 2008 but have since ran out of stock. 

It was a popular set of books to read to young children as it taught them about basic concepts such as numbers, letters, shapes, colours and transportation through the pillars of Islam.
