Teaching a child to read is one of the most difficult tasks faced by homeschooling parents but one of the most essential. Starting November 16, Dar al-Afia will offer a 17-week course aimed at getting young children started with reading. Our instructor, Ustadha Enrica Sow, is trained as a Montessori, Orton-Gillingham, and International Baccalaureate PYP educator with over 20 years of classroom experience in the U.S., Mauritania, Qatar, and the U.A.E.
In this class, students will learn phonetic pronunciation of words along with reading comprehension in an Islamic setting with a Muslim instructor. Elementary writing will also be introduced (إن شاء الله). The course is designed for students ages 5 -7 and will meet three times per week.
Duration: 17 weeks | Meetings: 3 per week | Start date: January 8 | Register here
