Welcome Letter from Tr. Hadia
Sept. 19th, 2014.
Dear Parents,
Assalamo
Allikum.
My name is Hadia Arabi Katbi. I am your child’s
Quran teacher. In this welcoming letter, I ask Allah Almighty to make this
school year a successful one, and to help us make the Quran reach our
children’s tongues and hearts. My utmost goal in my classroom is to make your
child learn how to read the Quran properly Inshallah.
Also, your child will be memorizing some Suras
of the Quran.
I will keep you
informed of your child’s progress in memorization and learning through the student
agenda which will be the main communication line between me and the parents. On
a weekly basis, you will find in the agenda the ayas we plan to study
and memorize and when the ayas are due for testing. Please do check the
agenda at least once a week to check on your child progress as I will write
notes and comments in case your child is not progressing.
Inshallah,
with your help, support and feedback, you will notice a big difference in your
child’s Quran reciting. Please feel free to contact me through the school
number or my email.

A Note from Tr. Amina

Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa
Barakatuhu!
Dear
Parents,
My name is Madame Amina Ould-brahim and I am your child French this
year. I have been at Abraar School since 2008 and each First Day of School is a
new exciting day for me and this year is no exception.
I am looking forward to a very successful year, Insha’a Allah, and I
know you are too. I have high expectations for your child and I will do all
what I can to help him / her to meet these expectations, Insha’a Allah!
Here is how you can help. I will be
expecting all work assigned in class to be completed. Of course, all children
do not work at the same pace. Some children will get their work done in class
and some will not. Whether or not your child gets his or her work done in class
has no effect on their grade. If your child does not complete an assignment in
class, he or she will be required to complete it at home. The way you can help
is to ask your child every school day if any schoolwork needs to be done, and
if so, make sure your child completes the assignment.
Class
rules and rewards/consequences
During French class, we have set the
following rules in order to promote and maintain a safe learning environment.
|
Students are allowed to talk in French during
French class with their friends except during instruction time. No whispering
is allowed throughout the whole period.
Supplies
Students are also expected to have
the following supplies:
|
French Curriculum:
In the New Ontario Core French curriculum, the
expectations are organized into 4 strands corresponding to the 4 main areas of
language use. These strands are listening speaking, reading and writing.
The difference with the previous curriculum is
that oral communication is split into listening and speaking and weights 50% in
the curriculum instead of 33%.
Aim language approach helps students to:
- Be able to communicate in authentic situation and to develop spontaneous oral communication through repetition of the vocabulary.
- To learn word-meaning relationships through gesture without relying on English translation.
- To connect emotionally to the content of their French as a Second Language course through familiar stories.
- To develop an awareness of language conventions (syntax and grammar) through gesture.
Please check the following websites for more
details.
During
September, we will focus on oral communication to enrich and to review our
vocabulary so students can interact in class discussions in French and we will
review some grammar concepts.
Homework:
This year, Insha’a Allah, students
will have:
- One spelling test each month.
- Reading a book and completing a book report each other month.
- Grammar worksheet based on the lesson covered.
Class work is expected to be
completed in class and on time. However, because students do not work at the
same pace, any uncompleted class work must be finished at home. If for any
reason, it is not done; students are given a last chance to finish it during
recess time.
You may help me in checking your
child’s agenda and the class blog on a daily basis to encourage him/her to do
the homework regularly as your child has only one long recess where he/she can
enjoy the fresh air and play with his/her friend.
As I am going to emphasize that only
French is spoken during French class for all grades, students may find it
challenging at the beginning but Insha’a Allah, as they will acquire more
vocabulary, they will gain confidence in using it spontaneously in class and
outside the class.
The French
Long range Plan will be posted in your child class ‘blog as soon as it becomes
available.
The success of this program cannot be achieved without your cooperation and your support. You may help by staying involved in your child’s education and emphasizing for him/her the importance of speaking only French in French class. Engage your child in conversation about his/her French class while understanding that students are not always able to articulate their experiences.
Finally, I want you to know that one of my most important goals this
year is to keep the lines of communication open with you Insha’a Allah. To keep
you updated, I will post French News in the class’ blog. I will also send you a
note in your child agenda or an email or call you whenever there is very
important information to be shared.
Should you have any questions or
concerns during the year, please feel free to contact me by:
Sending an email.
Jazakum Allah Kheiran for your cooperation and your support.
