:jz: and thanks for posting this. I guess I am a little surprised that by the age of 10 they have not yet completed memorization of the 30th Juz - I would have thought that by the stage they would be progressing a little bit faster, but at least they are on the right track and it will get them in the habit of study in sha'Allah. My kids were pushed a lot harder than this at madrassa. Alhamdulillah!
