NOW AVAILABLE: Hebrew Reading / Alef-Bet Lapbook!

I wish we’d had a lapbook like this when Naomi and I started doing alef-bais two years ago. But we didn’t, and we managed anyway. I think this lapbook is also very suitable for “older beginners” – kids who know a bit more than she did, at 4 years old, and who are actually interested in studying ABOUT Hebrew, whether they’re Jewish or not.

Some basic information:

The Hebrew language is relevant and meaningful for homeschoolers of any religion who want to understand the origins of the English alphabet, the beginnings of the Torah (Jewish Bible) or the modern State of Israel. This lapbook is perfect for a short unit study on the Hebrew alphabet and reading Biblical or Modern Hebrew. It's also a great way to find out if kids might be interested in continuing their Hebrew studies using software or textbooks.

This lapbook includes a short guide to "Teaching the Alef-Bet", with helpful web links, along with the following 13 mini-books ready for you and your child to fill in together:

Alef-Bet Matchbooks (22 of them, 1 for each letter!)
Final (Sofit) Letters Heart Book
Meet the Vowels Flap Book
Vowels Wheel
Which Way? Arrow Book
Sounds Like Hebrew! Flap Book
Ancient and Modern - Accordion Book
My Country - in Hebrew Shutter Book
Read Around Israel - Map Activity
All About Me Flaps Book
All Kinds of Writing - font samples pocket
I Can Read It! mini-book - three Biblical excerpts in easy-to-read Hebrew, with English transliterations
Watch the Dots! L-book, introduces letters which change sounds with a "dot" in the middle

What do we tell our kids about Chabad and “Yechi”?

If I start by saying I really like Chabad, and adore the late Lubavitcher Rebbe, z"l, well... maybe you already know where I'm headed. Naomi Rivka has been asking lately what I think about Chabad. She asks, in part, because she already knows how I feel. She already knows I’m bothered, though to her, it’s mostly about “liking” and “not liking.” I wish things were that simple. Our little neighbourhood in Israel has a significant Chabad presence, and Chabad conducts fairly significant outreach within the community. Which sounds nice until you realize that this is a religious neighbourhood, closed on Shabbos, where some huge percentage of people are shomer mitzvos. Sure, it’s mostly religious Zionist, and there are a range of observances, for sure, but we’re pretty much all religious here in some way or another. So at that point, this isn’t outreach but inreach . Convincing people who are religious to be… what? A lot of Chabad’s efforts here are focused on kids, including a
