HAPPY EID AL ADHA TO OUR MUSLIM COMMUNITY AND THE ENTIRE SCHOOL COMMUNITY OF LANDMARK ACADEMY NURSERY AND PRIMARY SCHOOL.

On behalf of our school community, we extend our warmest greetings to all students, parents, teachers, and stakeholders as we celebrate Eid Al-Adha Mubarak.

May this blessed occasion remind us of the values of faith, sacrifice, compassion, and unity. As we commemorate the devotion and obedience exemplified by Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) may we continue to inspire one another through kindness, generosity, and service to our community.

May Allah shower every home with peace, happiness, good health, and abundant blessings. Let this celebration strengthen our bonds as one family and guide us toward a future filled with hope and success.

Eid Al-Adha Mubarak to everyone!

HOW TO MAKE LEARNIN COLLABORATIVE

✅Design lessons that require students to work together, not individually.

✅Assign clear group roles so every student has responsibility and contribution.

✅Use problem-based tasks that can only be solved through teamwork.

✅Encourage students to discuss ideas before giving final answers.

✅Set up peer teaching moments where students explain concepts to one another.

✅Rotate group members regularly so students learn to work with different personalities.

✅Create ground rules for respect, listening and equal participation.

✅Use projects that reflect real-world teamwork, not just classroom theory.

✅Monitor groups closely and guide quietly instead of dominating discussions.

✅Reward collaboration as much as individual achievement to reinforce the habit.

QUALITIES OF AN EFFECTIVE TEACHER

A teacher is more than someone who stands in front of a class and talks.

A teacher shapes lives, influences character, builds confidence, and inspires learning.

Students may forget some lessons, but they rarely forget how a teacher made them feel.

So, what makes a teacher truly effective?

1. Preparation

An effective teacher prepares before entering the classroom.

Good preparation includes:

- Lesson planning
- Understanding the topic well
- Preparing teaching materials
- Knowing the learning objectives

A teacher who prepares teaches with confidence.

2. Patience

Not all students learn at the same speed.

Some learners understand quickly, while others need extra explanation and support.

An effective teacher:

- Avoids unnecessary anger
- Explains repeatedly when necessary
- Encourages struggling learners
- Understands individual differences

Patience helps students feel safe to learn.

3. Good Communication Skills

A teacher must be able to explain clearly.

Students learn better when lessons are:

- Simple
- Clear
- Engaging
- Interactive

Good communication also includes listening to students.

4. Classroom Management

An effective teacher knows how to manage the classroom properly.

This includes:

- Maintaining order
- Managing noise
- Keeping students focused
- Setting classroom rules
- Controlling time effectively

A well-managed classroom creates a better learning environment.

5. Passion for Teaching

Students can easily tell whether a teacher truly loves teaching. and

Passionate teachers:

- Teach with energy
- Encourage students
- Continue improving themselves
- Care about student success

Passion makes learning more enjoyable.

6. Continuous Learning

Great teachers never stop learning.

Education keeps changing, and teachers must continue to:

- Learn new methods

The best teachers are lifelong learners
