Bayt Al-Quran: Noorani Qaida-Lesson#26| Friday
Final Sounds of Kasrah: وِ (Waw), هِ (Haa), and يِ (Yaa)
Dear Parents and Little Learners
This week, we’re wrapping up our Kasrah adventure with three graceful and often whispery sounds: وِ (Waw), هِ (Haa), and يِ (Yaa). These letters glide like soft breezes, each carrying a light “i” sound beneath them — almost like a smile hidden under a gentle breeze!
Imagine little Waw (وِ) spinning like a twirl of wind, Haa (هِ) softly echoing like a breath in a quiet cave, and Yaa (يِ) stretching like a vine reaching for light. These aren’t just letters — they’re full of movement, mystery, and melody!
In this lesson, your child will practice identifying, pronouncing, and tracing these final Kasrah letters — bringing their full short-vowel set to completion. This is a big moment in their Arabic reading journey — they’ve almost mastered all the essential building blocks for reading words, phrases, and soon, ayahs of the Quran, inshaAllah.
Key Learning Objectives
Recognize and pronounce the letters وِ (Waw), هِ (Haa), and يِ (Yaa) with the Kasrah sound (the short “i” sound).
Identify the distinct shapes and sounds of these letters, especially the rounded Haa (هِ).
Trace each letter confidently to build writing fluency and letter recognition.
Differentiate between the sounds of وِ, هِ, and يِ in spoken and written form.
Begin to blend these letters with others in simple reading practice.
Strengthen auditory memory and sound association through repetition and listening.
Reinforce previous Kasrah letters by connecting this lesson with earlier ones.

Let’s Practice– Activity Sheet Time!
It’s time to wrap up our Kasrah journey with creativity and fun! This week’s Activity Sheet is specially designed to help your child explore the final three Kasrah letters — وِ, هِ, and يِ — through playful practice and engaging visuals.
From tracing elegant letter shapes to matching the correct “i” sounds, this sheet encourages hands-on learning that feels more like discovery than revision. Your little learner will strengthen their recognition, pronunciation, and confidence — all while enjoying colorful, bite-sized tasks.
Perfect for after-class review, car time practice, or a weekend learning moment — just print, grab those crayons, and watch how beautifully your child connects the dots from sound to script!
Playful Practice Ideas for وِ، هِ، يِ
"Whisper and Find" Game
Whisper one of the letters — like هِ — and ask your child to search the room for a flashcard, block, or paper with that letter. The quiet whisper mimics the softness of Kasrah, making it a fun auditory challenge! Bonus points for tiptoeing like the gentle sound itself.Kasrah Sound Jars
Take three small jars or cups and label them وِ, هِ, and يِ. Write mixed letters (with and without Kasrah) on small paper slips. Your child picks a slip, reads it aloud, and drops it into the correct jar based on the sound. Great for sorting and sound recognition!Wiggle & Write Race
Set up a mini race: every time your child hears you say a Kasrah letter (like يِ), they have to wiggle once, then run to their writing board or paper and trace the correct letter. It’s movement + learning — a proven combo for memory and motivation!
Teacher Noura Would Love to Hear from You!
How did your little learner enjoy discovering وِ, هِ, and يِ today? Was there a proud “I got it!” moment during one of the games? A perfectly traced يِ? Or a giggle while acting out the whisper game? We’d love to know!
Whether it's a quick message, a photo of their worksheet, or a little video of their reading practice — feel free to share it with us! Teacher Noura is always thrilled to celebrate your child’s milestones with a kind word and a virtual high-five, inshaAllah.
Every sound your child masters is a small triumph — helping them read with confidence, connect with the beauty of Arabic, and build a lifelong love for the Quran. You’re guiding them step by step, and it’s making a world of difference. Keep going — the finish line for Kasrah is just around the corner!
