Obsidian Soft - A Mom in Tech and Education

Hello friends, I am back with another fun educational resource on the topic of dinosaurs  🦖 . Yes! You can never have enough of dinosaurs. The more the merrier! So, I have converted my dinosaur infographics into flashcards. You know how much I love flashcards. So, my son was reading his favorite dinosaur book (it's a pop-up book with sounds) and this gave me the idea of doing dinosaurs again but this time in the form of flashcards. Printable worksheets can be torn or they can wear out but flashcards can be made more durable by sticking them on cardboard and covering them with scotch tape and you can't deny that they are perfect for little hands 😉. (A dear follower of my FB page suggested covering them with clear contact paper instead of using Scotch tape. Thank you for this idea 😊) I hope you like my small contribution to the world of dinosaurs. Hurrah for Dinosaur Lovers!  🦖   🦖   🦖   🦖   🦖   🦖   🦖   🦖   🦖   🦖  ...

Hello friends, I am back with more educational resources in my mother tongue i.e. Urdu. I feel that in our pursuit to learn English, mother tongues or national languages are being neglected. For example, I was reading a few days ago that speakers of the Irish language (Gaelic) are declining day by day. Till the 18th century, Gaelic was the first language of Ireland but then it was changed to English. The Irish government realized that they will lose their heritage by focusing too much on English. Hence, in 1937, a revised Constitution designated  Irish as "the first official language"  because it is "the national language" while English was recognized as "a second official language". We need this kind of radical change to save the Urdu language and revive it. The government of Pakistan is working hard for this endeavor and has taken steps by introducing the Single National Curriculum in Urdu for primary grades. However, I thought that I should also use...

English is a very important international language. In today's world of globalization, the importance of speaking and communicating in English has increased manifold. While communicating in the English language, speaking the correct tense is essential.  If you want more tips about speaking Engish fluently, have a look here . In my personal opinion, correlating the tenses in English language with the way time is expressed in someone's mother tongue is an effective way of explaining tenses. Hence, I have developed these two printables for helping people whose first language is Urdu or Hindi learn tenses in their own language. I hope you like this work.

Hello Friends, It has been a pretty long time since I did some read and write worksheets; the last I did were the Summer worksheets. If you missed those, have a look here . Now, I am here with something that is very, very close to my heart. I was in my junior year at my university when I read my first Harry Potter book. I fell in love with the wizarding world imagined by J. K Rowling. Today's children are super lucky as all the books are out and they can read them whenever they want. We had to wait  😔  for the next book to come out and it wasn't easy waiting. In any case, I loved everything HP (Harry Potter). So, when my elder one started reading books, I just couldn't wait to see him read Harry Potter. To my utter disappointment, he wasn't interested. HE WASN'T INTERESTED IN HARRY POTTER! Imagine my feelings 😔! One day, I coaxed him to read the first book. I promised him sweets and other goodies 😃. He gave me a tough time reading the first chapters but soon he w...
