Surah Kahf- The Man With The Two Gardens

  During any unit study I love connecting our Islamic Studies with each unit we study. For our Botany unit we read the Story of the Two Gardens from Surah Kahf. 

We started by watching this video

We also read this book

Then the kids made a garden collage. We painted a white cardstock paper with blue and purples. We let the paper dry. Then the kids tore construction paper and made date palm trees with fruit and dates. The kids added a lightning bolt on the top and some grass on the bottom. 

مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِٱللَّهِ

Surah Kahf Vs. 39

We concentrated on verse 39 and discussed the attitude of the two men. One was grateful and the other one attributed all his wealth to himself and forgot to thank Allah for his blessings. We talked about some of the blessings we are thankful. Lastly we learned what to say when we have something we are proud of.
