The boat is attached in the middle of the circular wheel with a pin and the circular wheel is turned so that the sail of the 'knowledge boat' faces the lesson which is currently in progress.

It can look something like this:

Weather cards are a good idea. It is much better than labelling students as 'naughty' or 'badly behaved' as this effects their mindset and is damaging.

Also, students are motivated by the weather metaphor. One day, the weather can be foggy but the next day it can be sunny. In the same way, it is never too late for students to improve behaviour.

The signs of the final hour can be divided into two groups:
 
1) Minor signs
Minor signs are events of normal nature prophesised by our Prophet Muhammed Peace and blessings be upon him to take place before Qiyamah like the consumption of alcohol, disrespect of parents, dancing, prevalence of ignorance and immorality and signs of this nature. The majority of the minor signs have appeared while some are occurring and some will appear with major signs.

2) Major signs
Major signs are events of extraordinary nature prophesied by our Prophet Peace and blessings be upon himto take place before Qiyamah. Once these signs appear, the end of the world is known to come very soon thereafter. Some of these have been provided in flashcard form below.

Yaajooj and Maajooj (Gog and Magog)


The Beast


The Fire


Imam Mahdi alayhissalaam
 

 Return of Isa (Jesus) alayhissalaam


 The Smoke


Sun Rising from West


Landslides 
 

Dajjaal (The Anti-Christ)


Important: 

 All of these signs are not in the order of occurance. They are in random order.  

These signs are not general. They refer to specific major events. For example, the major sign about landslides refers to 3 major landslides that will happen before Qiyaamah.  

The signs can be studied in detail in authentic books.

These cards can be held up or passed around the class. Students can guess which letters of the alphabet are in congruence with each flashcard. The wording and picture can be stuck back to back, if desired.

To view an overview of all Sifaat view this post and this post insha-Allah.

Note: Not all the Sifaat Ghayr Mutadhaddah [without opposites] have been included. There are 7 or 9 [according to difference of opinion on what should be included], and 2 have been left out. These two are 'Inhiraaf' and 'Takreer'.

This is according to the Hanafi madh-hab.
This is beneficial for younger students as it can help them absorb the information by counting the stars. It is also enjoyable because of the different colours.
