Level 3 details: (Grade 3) – الثالث المستوى

Upon completion of the Noraniyah Level 1&2 classes, or successfully passing an evaluation, students move on to reading and recitation (stage 2). Often starting with Juzu’ Amma (Juzu’ 30) from Surah An-Nabaa’ to avoid students’ reliance on memory, as most have memorized short surah/end of Juzu Amma. The goal of stage 2 class is to strengthen reading abilities and increase fluency and consistency in applying Tajweed & Tilawah principles. Some students may need to continue with stage 2 until they become more independent and fluent with their recitation, while others, may be encouraged to focus on open book reading as it may be difficult to manage memorization with Tajweed as a beginner. In this class, students will focus on recitation while applying Tajweed & Tilawah skills learned in the Noraniyah stage. The focus is on open book recitation more than memorization, unless the student is capable of both simultaneously.
