Asalamu’alaykum ladies, we’re onto our final post in the homeschool planning series; our routine. I remember when I first began homeschooling, putting a routine together was the thing I usually went for first. I’d print off blank templates, and then start to fill them in, based on the curriculum or materials I’d bought. But I’d […]
Asalamu’alaykum ladies, it’s been a few weeks since my last blog post; finishing up our school year, thinking about the next, and Dhul Hijjah and E’id celebrations, things have been busy here. And I know many mamas are knee-deep in the trenches planning for the upcoming year too, which is why this post will be […]
Asalamu’alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu ladies, how are you? Over the years, I’ve shared a few things we’ve done in our homeschool that I hoped may benefit another sister reading these posts. But today I thought I’d share three things we no longer do in our Muslim homeschool because letting go of things that you […]
Asalamu’alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu ladies, how are you? Things have been busy around here which is why I haven’t managed to publish a blog post for some time; my older kids fell a little behind with some academic work, so we’ve had a short-term routine in place the last couple of weeks to get […]
Asalamu’alaykum was rahmatullahi was barakatu ladies. How are you? It’s already November, and I’m enjoying the cool winter weather, Alhamdulillah. So today, I thought I would touch upon something very relevant for us all, no matter where we are, how many children we have, and how long we have homeschooled our children for. And that […]
Asalamu’alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu ladies. Alhamdulillah, I’m ready to share my ten-year homeschool reflection with you all. Today’s post is a deeply personal one. In fact, it’s made me pretty emotional and quite teary. As I think back and reflect on how my children were so young, small, fragile, our steps into homeschooling without […]
Asalamu’alaykum was rahmatullahi was barakatu ladies. It’s been a while since I’ve written up a blog post. With full on homeschooling, and launching The MHSM Membership, things have been busy. But today, I want to touch upon what I believe is something that when many of us begin to simplify our homeschools. And that is […]
Asalamu’alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu ladies, how are you? Todays post is about something super important in the homeschool planning process; evaluating our home atmosphere (I’ll get to why in a minute). Hence, I’m posting this out in the evening because it’s one of those things you need a little quiet time to think about. […]
Asalamu’alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu ladies, I’m sat here, with my reheated (I’ve lost how many times) coffee, and a list of IGCSE questions I’m helping my teens through. It isn’t the most relaxing way to enjoy a midweek evening; but though homeschooling teens comes with it’s challenges, it comes with a lot of satisfaction […]
Asalamu’alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu ladies, Have you ever had a week, month (or even year) where something keeps slipping off your homeschool routine? And so things do get done, but a few things also slip through the cracks? That even after all the condensing, you find things slip off. That you know something ‘fell […]
Asalamu’alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatau ladies, how are you? I hope you had a wonderful Eid with your loved ones. We went away for a few days, and the fresh air did me some good alhamdulillah. I’ve actually been meaning to write up this post for quite some time but with Ramadan, and Eid I […]
Asalamu’alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu ladies, I hope you are all in the best of health and emaan. It’s been a while since I’ve managed to sit and write a blog post. Life has been busy as I’m sure it has been for you. You may have noticed that the blog has gone through a […]
Simple practical tips to teach toddlers in your Muslim Homeschool. Your starting point is knowing Allah and His Messenger (may Allahs peace and blessings be upon him).
Asalamu alaykum ladies. Happy Monday! Today’s discussion is one I’ve had on my mind for a while. It stems from the questions we as homeschool Moms constantly ask ourselves. How do I know Im doing the right thing? Am I good enough? Can I really teach my child and prepare him/her for the real world? […]
Asalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu ladies, I hope you’re having a wonderful Tuesday. I recently listened to series where homeschool Mamas were sharing ten habits they adopt that serves them well in their homeschool. And it really got me thinking about my own habits, and the things that I feel have really helped me […]
Asalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu ladies. A lot of you enjoyed reading my last blog post ‘my first week of homeschooling’ and wanted to know more about how I recovered from a painful start. Yes, recovered! And I’ll be honest, recovery certainly didn’t come overnight. That pressure I felt lasted for a good few […]
Asalamu alaykum ladies, A couple of days ago I asked if you would like an insight into how my first week of homeschooling went a few years ago, and many of you were interested, so here it is. So, my daughter did not go to kindergarten/nursery and I loved having her at home with me; […]
Asalamu alaykum ladies, alhamdulillah its Jumuah today. Since many of us are knee-high in homeschool planning, I thought I would share a few tips that can help save some pennies. Everyone has different budgets, and it’s so easy to go overboard in buying curricula, books and supplies which isn’t necessary. We want to start our […]
Asalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu ladies. I hope you’re having a nice weekend. A few days ago, I posted a question on my Instagram, asking if you struggle with self-confidence as a homeschool Mom. The result was a staggering 75% YES, and in all honesty, I wasn’t surprised. Why? Because homeschooling doesn’t come with […]
Asalamu alaykum Mamas, I hope you’re well. When we begin homeschooling, or even some time into it, it’s normal to feel a little dubious about the whole idea. Homeschooling is not the norm in many parts of the world, and when those around you question your choices, it’s all too easy for Mama to feel […]
Asalamu alaykum ladies. Homeschool boredom is something I have personally experienced myself, as are all the topics I discuss on my blog. It’s moments during your homeschool season that begin to feel monotonous, and you begin to lose interest in anything remotely to do with planning teaching. It’s not the same as homeschool burnout, which […]
