﷽
It’s that time of the year again, Alhumdulillah!
I’ve had this in my drafts ever since November last year but finally decided to post it now. Alhumdulillah.

• 𝐐𝐮𝐢𝐳𝐳𝐞𝐬:
Class Quizzes are one of the most fun and effective ways to revise work.
- The class can be split into groups/teams. Ideally, Girls on 1 team and Boys in another team.
– Mention your rules for the quiz such as ‘no shouting out answers’ etc
- Set an incentive or reward for the winning team.
- Draw up a score board on the board.
– You should ensure to ask questions of similar difficulty to each group in 1 round.
𝐌𝐲 𝐟𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐳 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈’𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐤:
I made the quiz more fun/challenging by giving each team a chance to set questions for the other team.
And they can appoint a leader (or you can!) to question the other team. (You’d actually be surprised at what difficult questions they asked and how strict they were with giving points! Hehe)
✨ This is a no prep activity if you use the questions found after each lesson in the textbook.
Or, you can use a past paper to choose questions from.

• 𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫/𝐁𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫
Select a few lessons from the kitab from which each student should choose 1 lesson to design a creative A4 poster together with a little presentation or revision of the lesson.
Each child can then present the lesson with the poster to the rest of the class.
Again, this is a no prep activity and you can choose an incentive for those that complete this activity (such as free time or reading time or even R5/R10)This revision activity can be done in pairs or in groups also.
𝘈𝘨𝘦: 𝟿 𝘶𝘱𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘴 (𝘎𝘳𝘢𝘥𝘦 𝟹)
• 𝐒𝐞𝐭 𝐚𝐧 𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐦 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚 𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝
- Pair the students up (use your discretion and avoid pairs where personalities clash, 2 high-achievers or 2 low-achievers)
- Choose a specific amount of lessons
– Ask them to prepare an exam/test for the partner on those lessons
– Once they’ve prepared it, ask them to swap papers and give them a time limit to complete.
Then, swap papers back again and each gets to mark the paper they set.
𝘈𝘨𝘦: 𝟷𝟶 𝘶𝘱𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘴 (𝘎𝘳𝘢𝘥𝘦 𝟺)
• 𝐋𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧/𝐁𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫
At the beginning of the Madrasah day/time, Choose 1 lesson for each/few students and give them time during class to prepare the lesson as revision.
They can be creative or use the board. (Don’t forget to say: ‘Today Moulana Hanzalah/Apa Maariyah (use child’s name) will be teaching us today! – they love it!
)𝘈𝘨𝘦 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘦: 𝟷𝟶 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘴 𝘶𝘱𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘴 (𝘎𝘳𝘢𝘥𝘦 𝟺 𝘶𝘱𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘴)
• 𝐏𝐢𝐜𝐤 𝐮𝐩 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐬/𝐈𝐜𝐞 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐬
Use the same set of sticks that were used for your Orals revision and stick questions onto them.
If the student answers correctly, he/she or if in teams, they get to keep the stick.
Winner is the one with the most amount of sticks.
𝘈𝘨𝘦 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘦: 7 𝘶𝘱𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘴 (𝘎𝘳𝘢𝘥𝘦 𝟺 𝘶𝘱𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘴)
• 𝐁𝐨𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐞
Use any board from a board game (P.s: make sure it has no animate objects/features).
Make your own question cards or use a past year exam paper. (use different types of questioning styles like True/False etc also).
- You can pair the students up or make teams for this game.
– Use the 30 seconds timer.
– Winning team is the one that answers most questions correctly (1 point per answer/move 1 space per each correct answer)
𝘈𝘨𝘦 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘦: 𝟿 𝘶𝘱𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘴 (𝘎𝘳𝘢𝘥𝘦 𝟹 𝘶𝘱𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘴)
May Allah Ta’ala make it easy for your students and bless them with understanding and amal. Aameen.
