Abilities: Varies greatly among students. Generally they are bright and inquisitive.
Rational answers begin to become important in this age group. Formats

children. They must begin to be engaged on an intellectual level (not to
intellectual, though). Preferred
Format: This grade has a completed textbook containing all of the
appropriate knowledge which she be taught at this
level. Therefore, the list of what needs to be taught will be brief. The
teacher will guide the students through the reading, one lesson per day, and
then assign the homework exercises at the end of each lesson. Note: From this grade
onwards, boys and girls Nasheed classes should be separate.
