M...@breathingspace - thanks for stopping by again! My son's teacher taught him the trop first and I'm always amazed at how quickly he can pick up & lain a new parsha. Like, in *minutes*. vs me who needs to hear it sung over and over and over. I know he's smarter, but I still think this is important stuff for all kids - not just boys - to learn.Tziviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11828930310967808828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21153604.post-9063663471050110052012-10-27T23:43:11.890-04:002012-10-27T23:43:11.890-04:00I was just complaining to my husband how nobody ta...I was just complaining to my husband how nobody taught me trop or basic punctuation. I as taught about etnachta, and taught to stop at it, but those other pauses ( the diamond and two dots), those I encountered much later. I am teaching my 8yo to stop at those places in his translation of a pasuk.<br />And I am hoping to learn trop, not for laining, but for teaching it to my kids.breathingspacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08660982658933603531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21153604.post-81763336755911684752012-10-26T00:42:21.923-04:002012-10-26T00:42:21.923-04:00Yeah, I almost mentioned that I didn't learn t...Yeah, I almost mentioned that I didn't learn trop (or trope) despite laining at my Bat. I just had the standard maftir / haftorah booklet and learned what was in there. No way to generalize to other sections of the Torah. It was the heyday of the cassette recorder, and even the aged cantor just popped in a tape and recorded his own voice for me to memorize.Tziviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11828930310967808828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21153604.post-8361921604947635992012-10-26T00:18:18.103-04:002012-10-26T00:18:18.103-04:00Hmm.

Hmm... under-appreciated advantage of girls learning trope?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
