End of Foundation Stage

Dear Reader's
Zara has successfully reached the last part of the Foundation Stage!! In this stage she has learned the Urdu Alphabet and sounds. She has also learnt Urdu writing but we are still practicing more handwriting! She has gained some knowledge of Urdu words which has enhanced her vocabulary quite a bit. She is now familiar with the short forms of the Urdu Alphabet as well. We are spending more time on this section of the Foundation Stage since the short forms of the alphabet are joined together to form words. It is therefore important to be proficient in them. We are hoping to complete the Foundation Stage very soon. Zara will then start Stage 1-probably soon after Eid.
Both of us are excited about it :D
Until then, wish you all lots of Eid Mubariks!
Regards,
Savera

URDU FLASH CARDS!

Dear Urdu at Home users,
Ramadan has come to an end and Eid preparations must be in order!
The new Urdu flash cards can make a wonderful Eid present for children. My daughter is currently using the Bilingual Flash Cards on word opposites and she is loving them. She usually sits with them and plays on her own and when she forgets something she calls me.
Do try them.
Regards,
Savera

Foundation Stage: Level 2

Amazing ......totally love the 2nd level of foundation stage! It not only helps children learn the sound of each alphabet letter but helps them learn how to spell the word that corresponds to each letter.
