Assalฤmu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullฤhi Wa Barakฤtuh
Alhumdulillฤh, we have reached the halfway mark! May Allฤh accept. ฤmฤซn
I made the 1st page of this activity to do with my students today. Alhumdulillฤh, it is an activity that can be done by anyone from Age 10+.
(Yep, even adults may find these beneficial, Alhumdulillฤh!)
The 2nd 2 pages of the Activity can be done in the last few days of Ramadan or after Ramadan.
You could even cut the text boxes out and stick them to a bulletin board, or classroom display wall. And there will be so many useful discussions come out of this Inshฤ’Allฤh.
Keep a look out on my pages (Telegram, Instagram and WhatsApp) to see the end result of these in my classroom.
I hope you and your students benefit from it Inshฤ’Allฤh!

The idea for this stemmed from the Arabic Airplane Themed video that does its rounds every year at the start of Ramadan, if you’ve seen it, you know how amazingly done that is! And if you know me, you know how much I love Airplane Themed stuff! (Hehe)
You’ll find the Boarding Pass and Luggage Tag has two styles: The first is Sha’ban to Ramadan and the second is Dunya to Jannah.

My Ramadan Itinerary
I had planned these activities for last year – but, we were online during Ramadan so Alhumdulillah, finally got to do them this year and the kiddos are loving it!
They are taking it so seriously and ready to kick anyone out (of the class!) who didn’t bring their boarding pass or luggage daily! Hehe
I know your kids will enjoy it too so go ahead and print!

All praise is due to Allah who has allowed us to reach the month of Ramadan 1442ah.
There are so so many beautiful Ramadan activities out there and it’s amazing to see how creative every Apa, Muallimah and mum is out there in creating beautiful activities and spaces for Ramadan. (I hope to be as creative some day Insha Allah!!)
Here are some activities I’ve put together in 1441 and 1442. I hope you find them useful Insha Allah.
(MORE coming soon, watch this space!) InshaAllah.
Activity 1: My Taraweeh Tracker
Activity 2: Fasting Is a Shield / I am Fasting Ramadan Badges
I used this in conjunction with a shield themed fasting chart – click here.
Activity 3: Wake Me up for Sehri door knob hangers
Don’t forget to share with family and friends.
I’d also love to hear and see your feedback and creations!

Springing up Our Salah
ุจุณู ุงููู ุงูุฑุญู ู ุงูุฑุญูู
From the Ahadฤซth of the Prophet ุตูู ุงููู ุนููู ูุณูู , we are taught to teach children to pray Salฤh from age 7. โฃโฃ
Alhumdulillฤh, we as teachers encourage this but as they grow older, it’s important for us to instil the importance of not missing a Salฤh in them.
โฃโฃLast year, I was teaching 9-10year olds and when all of them had turned 10, I decided to do a ๐๐ฉ๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฎ๐ฉ ๐๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐๐ฅฤ๐ก ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ฆ๐ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ฆ๐จ๐ง๐ญ๐ก of ๐๐๐ฉ๐ญ๐๐ฆ๐๐๐ซ.ย
This post has details regarding Week 1 of the theme. InshaAllah, more to come regarding the next weeks.

I bought oval-shaped clocks for the boys and heart shaped ones for the girls. (Clocks were purchased from Durban – Osman’s for approx. R35 each)โฃโฃ
The reason for gifting them the alarm clocks was to teach them responsibility and to create awareness in their homes also.โฃโฃ
The purpose of creating the theme was to create interest and support to the students in performing all 5 Salฤh as many kids feel unsupported from their parents and home situations.โฃโฃ
Envelope Contents
Each student’s envelope contained:
- Yearly Perpetual Salah Calendar (for my city – Durban)
- The Cutest Daily Salah Charts for 2 months which I downloaded from www.riadaljanna.com
- Salah Doorknob Hangers encouraging waking up for Fajr Salah (download found in this blogpost)
- Plain Paper which we used to write special letters to the parents regarding their intention to perform all 5 Salah and requesting Dua and assistance. See the pic below
- Salah Doorknob Hangers encouraging waking up for Fajr Salah (download found in this blogpost)
Salah is Better than Sleep
The students coloured and designed these and I laminated them after which, they took it home to use. Alhumdulillah, the feedback after this was great so I decided to share it.
Click the download button below to download the PDF and print it inshaAllah!
Oh and don’t forget to make them write “Salah is better than sleep” on both sides of the door hanger handle.
Alhumdulillฤh, as the days went by, they progressed and many of them started performing Fajr every day.
P.S: I have written a post about Salaah Time in the classroom, check it out below:โฃ

May Allah accept all our efforts and forgive us for our errors. Aameen.

All About Me Activity
ุจุณู ุงููู ุงูุฑุญู ู ุงูุฑุญูู
At the beginning of every year, I love playing games or doing other activities for the learners to get to know each other and for me to also learn more about them.
Finding appropriate activities in this regard hasn’t been difficult but I wanted to create one with an Islamic ethos.
This ALL ABOUT ME activity reinforces Aqeedah of Allah AL-Khaliq, AL-Wadood and students will have fun decorating and writing about themselves.
You can also use this as an icebreaker activity and ask learners to present this in front of you and their classmates.
I hope you find this useful and beneficial for your classroom and students inshaAllah.

Make sure your students have everything they will need to take the tests, including a ruler, eraser, pencils and colours.

Allow them to keep their usual ‘places’ for comfort but extra spaced out than usual to minimize distraction and temptation to cheat. I like to give them cardboard folders to place in front of them to cover their tests and keep them focused on their own tests.โฃโฃโฃโฃโฃโฃ

Stick a piece of paper with the name of Surahs/Duas/Hadeeth onto the sticks. Students have to read it correctly before being allowed to keep the stick. Player with the most sticks wins.โฃโฃ

Match the surah/dua/hadeeth to its name. Students have to read it correctly before taking the set. (Create your own cards by photocopying the Surahs/Duas/Hadeeth from your kitab and lay them out on a desk/table upside down)

Wrap up a class gift or class incentive (such as ice cream day or outside free play time) with many layers of paper (we always have some used paper lying around in our classes, don’t we?)โฃ
Each layer should have a piece of paper with a surah/dua/hadeeth name. Students have to read correctly before unwrapping the layer, if they can’t, make sure to have a plan in mind for them to learn it correctly.โฃโฃ

โฃUse any game board from a board game (P.s: make sure it has no animate objects/features) Make your own question cards or stick Surah/Dua/Hadeeth names onto the board.
