How to use this booklet. Read the ayat together first. Then let your child pick 3 or 4 pages for one sitting. Every page has two levels: Level 1 for younger children (about 5–7), Level 2 for older ones (about 8–10). Children at both levels can work at the same table.

  • Investigate: find the surah in a real mushaf, match ayat to meanings, and play with its words, letters and numbers.
  • Integrate: build sentences, find words, and start memorising.
  • Impart: choose one plan for this week and show your work to someone.

About the text

The Arabic is the Uthmani text from the IqraSaurus Quran data, copied by program and never typed. The English meaning of each ayah is from the translation by Abdullah Yusuf Ali. The meanings under single words are word-by-word helps from quranexcel.com, not a translation. Sentences, questions and plans come from Tadabbur guides the asatizah have checked. Ask your ustaz or ustazah if anything is unclear.
