TES Curriculum
At Tarbiyah, we believe the methods of interaction with children is a paramount source of not only developing them as good human beings but also impacting them to be responsible citizens. Although, principally based on the Ontario education system, the Tarbiyah curriculum has been formed by TES administration to inculcate vital components of Islamic teachings. We also focus on strong literacy and numeracy skills that are critical for academic achievement.
Ontario Curriculum
Our academic curriculum follows the fundamental expectations outlined in the Ministry of Ontario curriculum
For Tarbiyah Elementary, ‘academic’ consists of the core subject areas; Language (English), Math, Science, Social Studies and Health. These areas will be delivered keeping in mind the expectations; however, modifications and alterations will be made by the child’s teacher when fundamentals of Islam need to be addressed pertaining to topics covered. For instance, the topic of water cycle easily lends itself to a deeper exploration and understanding of the blessing of water to mankind from Allah Swt. In this manner, many topics will be taught using an interdisciplinary approach, relating Islam with the academic knowledge and skill as much as possible.
