3. Reading scrap Books 4. Reading Tasks (for every story you read)

Reading is not just about reading books; it’s about being

able to read everything you see.

For example; magazines, newspapers, leaflets, menus,

road signs, banners etc. So next time you see something

you were able to read, come home and draw it in your

scrap book. If you were able to pick something up like a

menu, leaflet or ticket; stick it in your scrap book.

Discuss your findings with your parents.

Write down in your scrap books;

Who was your favorite character and why?

Retell the story in your own words.

What problems did the characters face in the story and

how did they solve the problems?

What was your favorite part of the story?

What would you like to ask the characters?

Did you like the story or not?

5. Word Detective 6. I am an author

Whenever you read; you will always find words which

you don’t understand. So, keep jotting them down in

your scrap book and when you get the chance discuss the

words with your parents. Try making sentences with

these words too!

Nouns are the name of a person or place, adjectives are

describing words and verbs are action/ doing words.

After reading your story, try recalling these words and jot

them down.

You’ve worked really hard all summer, reading stories and

collecting all that fabulous information. So, Let’s put it all to

use.

You will be an author and write your own story; Think about

all the stories you read and look through the things you have

gathered in your scrap book for inspiration.

Now, sit and think carefully how to begin your story, what

could be the middle and then the end. Think about the moral.

Present the story as a book with illustrations. Don’t forget to

bring your scrap book and story to school.

Grade II

importantly, enjoy what you read and retell the stories to your friends and family! You will become fluent in

use. Clear the toys, books or crafts that remain after

you have finished. Honesty is the best policy. Tell the

truth at all times.

At The Dining Table:

Say يب ٱب ٱلر س م ـ ب ٱلر ب يب take small bites, eat , ب س

neatly, slowly with your mouth closed. Help to clear

the table and clean up. Do not forget to say

Alhamdulillah.

In The Park:

Littering makes the park untidy. Destroying the plants

or plucking the flowers will spoil the beauty. Wait for

your turn on swing and slides.

While Shopping:

Softly ask your parent for what you want. If refused,

don’t throw a tantrum. Be careful, don’t touch any

breakable item.

On The Telephone:

If there are no elders around, don’t let the phone ring

long, answer it.

Talk softly when someone is speaking on the phone

and don’t Interrupt.

Remember! Cleanliness is half of faith.

Hygiene:

Miswak before every Salah.

Trim your nails on Friday.

Do not waste water and electricity.

Keep your surroundings and environment clean. It is

bad habit to throw things out of the window, car or a

balcony.

Wudu and Salah

at their prescribed timings. Try to pray tarawee during

the month of Ramadan
