كلنا سنذهب إلى الحج، كلنا سنذهب إلى الحج

                            كلنا سنذهب ، كلنا سنذهب، كلنا سنذهب إلى الحج.

سنلبس الأبيض في الحج، سنلبس الأبيض في الحج

                            سنلبس الأبيض، سنلبس الأبيض، سنلبس الأبيض في الحج.

سنطوف حول الكعبة  سبع مرات، سنطوف حول الكعبة سبع مرات

             سنطوف حول الكعبة ، سنطوف حول الكعبة، سنطوف حول الكعبة سبع مرات.

سنسعى بين الصفا والمروة ، سنسعى بين الصفا والمروة

              سنسعى بين الصفا ، سنسعى بين الصفا ، سنسعى بين الصفا والمروة.

سنشرب ماء زمزم، سنشرب ماء زمزم

                         سنشرب ماء، سنشرب ماء، سنشرب ماء زمزم.

سنرمي الجمرات على الشيطان، سنرمي الجمرات على الشيطان

                       سنرمي الجمرات، سنرمي الجمرات، سنرمي الجمرات على الشيطان.

سنقف بجبل عرفات ، سنقف بجبل عرفات

                         سنقف بجبل، سنقف بجبل، سنقف بجبل عرفات.

سنذبح الأضحية في الحج، سنذبح الأضحية في الحج

                          سنذبح الأضحية ، سنذبح الأضحية ، سنذبح الأضحية في الحج.

Living and Non-living Things

Assalamu Alikum Dear Parents,

Today Junior Kindergartners enjoyed the living and non-living things lesson by observing a live guinea pig! I'd like to thank Teacher Jessica for bringing in her pet guinea pig named Leo to the class. The students got to observe first hand a living creature, which was tied into today's lesson.

They enjoyed feeding him while singing the living things song. The song, which was sung in Arabic, is identical to the French  version, which is FRERE JACQUES. 

We focused on 3 words in the song. They are typed in red in the song.

هو يأكل، هو يشرب، يتنفس، يتنفس

هو هو حي 

هو هو حي 

يتنفس يتنفس

We will continue talking about the living and non-living things tomorrow, Insha'Allah and answer a working sheet.

Jazakum Allahu Khyran
