Learn about Animals in Urdu

-

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 my knowledge and skills to contribute to this worthy effort. 


Animal Flash Cards for Kids:

So, here I am with my animal flashcards in Urdu. Each card is double-sided with a colorful picture of the animal on one side with the name in both Urdu and English. The other side of the card has a short description of the animal in Urdu. This is a wonderful way of teaching children how they can write about animals! I have also provided an Urdu to English dictionary for difficult words. Moreover, I have created two worksheets to test the learning of the children in a fun way. I hope you like this effort. Do comment if you want more resources like this. If you have something particular in mind, also mention it. Thank you 😊


How to make Animal flash cards:

Cut out an A4 size cardboard paper or you can even recycle an empty cereal box. Cut in the middle lengthwise. Print out the animal flashcards on A4 size paper. Put a piece of cardboard in the middle of the printed paper and glue the paper around it. Cut out the flashcards. You will get three double-sided flashcards from each printout. You can make all flashcards waterproof by covering them with Scotch tape.

Jolly Phonics Group 1

Free Jolly Phonics Group 1 worksheets (s, a, t, i, p, n) According to Oxford Dictionary, phonics is a "method of teaching people to read by correlating sounds with symbols in an alphabetic writing system". In simple words, each letter of the alphabet has a sound. Instead of teaching young children the names of these alphabets, the sounds are taught. For example "a" makes the sound /a/...this is exactly the sound that comes from your mouth in the beginning when you say the word " apple " or " ant ". The letter "a" makes a different sound in words like " arm " and " ate " but these rules are taught later.  Jolly Phonics is a synthetic phonics system where all the letters of the alphabet have been split into seven groups. Each group contains 6 letters or their combinations so a total of 42 sounds are taught. What do I mean by a combination of letters? Remember that the combination of letters "s" and "h&

Free Jolly Phonics Group 2 worksheets (c/k, e, h, r, m, d) Hello Friends, I am back with another set of worksheets for helping children learn their phonics sounds. As you might already know, I am a strong proponent of the Jolly Phonics system of synthetic phonics sounds. Jolly Phonics system follows a particular order of teaching alphabet sounds in which there are seven groups. The following image shows the seven groups of Jolly Phonics along with an extra group taught by my Phonics app on Google Play Store. My app called  Phonics Fun  is 100% Free so you can download it and use it on all your Android devices.  It teaches all the letter sounds and different phonics rules and follows the pattern of Jolly Phonics but it is available for free. It is the perfect way to master phonics as you can hear phonics sounds and also test learning by playing many matching games. Coming back to printable Jolly phonics worksheets, I have already published worksheets for practicing Group 1 (s, a, t,

Jolly Phonics Flash Cards

Gone are the days of A for apple, B for Ball...this is the time of synthetic phonics where each alphabet has a sound. Now, you don't teach children the name of the letter but the sound made by the letter. A has the sound that comes when we say the word apple, b has the sound that comes when we say bed, and so on and so forth. There are different systems of synthetic phonics but I have felt that Jolly Phonics is the best system. In fact, I made my first mobile app for my son based on the Jolly Phonics style of teaching. However, I know that many people want to limit screen exposure for their children so I decided to make these flashcards.  You can use these flashcards independently or you can use them along with my app called Phonics Fun , available on the Google Play Store. You can hear the sounds from my app. Practice using these flashcards and then, test learning using my app too...a win-win situation :) The Jolly Phonics flash cards are double-sided. I have told you in my previ
