Ihtifal & Year End Concert 2016

Ihtifal & Year End Concert 2016
19 November 2016
Dewan Anuwar Mahmud, UKM

Our 7th Ihtifal. 89 graduates. Alhamdulillah.

The event surely filled the hearts with mixed feelings. Feelings of fulfillment and sadness, anxiety and eagerness. It was pretty an emotional day for us, teachers, after many weeks of preparation. But at the end of the day, it’s just worth all the effort.

Just as the kids were singing:

And now, the end is near
And now we face the final curtain
Our hearts, our hearts sincere
Our special thanks to all those presence
Good bye we bid to you.. 
Hope you enjoy our show today
This show, this show for you
We did it our way….

we let the photos tell you about “our way”.. the Alif Ceria way 😉 😉 😉

Kids Go Shopping!

“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.”

― Benjamin Franklin

And here we are, taking the kids out for shopping at various places including the hypermarket, grocery shop, bookshop & the wet market! Now, let’s list down what do they LEARN out of this trip, shall we?

  1. Shopping manners (excuse me, please & thank you!)
  2. Writing the shopping list  (wants vs. needs)
  3. Reading the product label (checking expiry date and looking for Halal logo)
  4. Direction – finding way to the aisle of specific item
  5. Money (checking & comparing the price)
  6. Counting & weighing
  7. Observing healthy vs. unhealthy food
  8. Spending within the budget
  9. Opportunity for interaction & conversation
  10. Language & vocabulary (new words)
  11. Practical problem solving
  12. Using all the senses to experience shopping – touching, smelling, squeezing, shaking, and looking at the items

Shopping with kids might involve a little extra planning, and the shopping might take a little longer, but it is well worth it, InsyaAllah, given the benefits they will gain from this exposure.
