Episode 9: Sharing my homeschool rhythm

Written By Asma Ahmad

Welcome again!

In this episode, I share:

  • Why I chose a Waldorf-Inspired homeschool approach

  • The challenges with being pulled back into a typical model of teaching

  • How I integrate Waldorf principles with an Islamic framework.

  • Our Monday - Thursday rhythm and routine

It just so happened that my son woke up just before I could record the last part about our Friday rhythm so the episode ends with my daughter whispering “he’s awake,” instead of how I hoped to finish it off with our Friday rhythm .

Fridays are typically slower days in that we read a Seerah story from our 365 Days with the Prophet (saw) book, do our reflective drawings, and prepare for Jummu’ah.
