Note for Teachers & Parents
1. Love the kids and see the love you get in return
2. Make learning fun. Do not demean the kids’ love of learning by overt and covert
criticisms
3. All children are masum hence the ultimate fault is of an adult!
4. Be the first to say Sallams with a happy smile
5. Do not make the lessons of faith an artificial attachment to life
6. Use plenty of life examples. Let the children share their experiences and thoughts
6. Do not make religion over burdening for yourself or others. Make it sensible and
meaningful
7. Remember the PPPPP rule: “Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance”
8. Use other books where needed. Create a book culture around kids.
9. Create a good atmosphere in class by smiles, soft voice, naats, munajats and
nasheeds in the background, and plenty of interesting displays
10. Keep it organised. Show interest in the kids work. And give appropriate praise &
rewards. Without these we all will fail in providing children with quality service in
upbringing and in education.
