On our way back from Ipoh, heading towards Taiping, we stopped a cyclist.

one month pause (2): voice talents

Posted by: coachsha on: October 6, 2009

Ramadhan this year was really a fruitful month for us – mentally and spiritually.  Well, physically fruitful too because we indulged in dates daily.
Both of us took one month off from traveling for seminars (tetapi ada terselit satu dua program).  We learned our lesson.  In the past years, we spent some days and even weeks [...]

one month pause (1) – hafazan project

Posted by: coachsha on: October 6, 2009

Assalamu’alaikum.
Salam Aidilfitri!  Ramadhan has been a very fulfilling month for the whole family.  Alhamdulillah, Muhammad and Musa have started their Juzu’ Amma memorization project.  Way to go, kids.
Of course, this project is ongoing because memorization is not one-off kind of thing.  They must be able to recite or continue the ayat (verses) from any surah [...]

It’s a matter of CHOICE

This blog is about homeschooling. Our kids (Muhammad, 8, Musa, 7, Maryam, 5 and Sarah, 1) are exposed to learning & tarbiyyah at home, in the van, on the road. The world is their classroom. Their teachers are Abi & Umi, Tok Wan, Tok Wen, Opah, Sensei, their tutors and coaches, all the aunties and uncles in our big family, our friends and people from all walks of life.
We don't subscribe to a particular theory - what Islam has given us is simple and specific enough. Enjoy reading!
