Progress report

Amina, 7

Reading Foundations · Cycle 3 · 4 weeks

  1. 01Today's win

    Amina read the whole of Surah Al-Ikhlas from the mushaf without help, with correct harakat on every word.

  2. 02Where we're still working

    She still confuses ح and ه when they appear in the middle of a word. We'll spend five minutes on this at the start of each lesson.

  3. 03One thing to do at home

    Ask her to read Al-Ikhlas aloud to you once before bed, and point to each ح as she says it.
