Naomi’s Worksheet for Gavriel Zev

To satisfy his insatiable demand for “same/different”, Naomi created this worksheet which is so far above his head, it’s just completely funny.

On each line, he is supposed to:  figure out which of several items is DIFFERENT and circle it, then, identify one of the “same” items that is missing a part, draw in the missing part and then completely colour that one in.  She’s done the first row for him (“for you dun now”) – she has circled the DOG, which is different, drawn in one cat’s missing tail and then coloured him in with orange marker. 

In the second row, three elephants are missing tails, and the giraffe-thing is DIFFERENT.  In the third row, one car is different, the other is missing a tail.

Sheesh… I think you need a PhD to fill in this worksheet!  Happily, she has provided not one but THREE checkboxes at the top so you can make sure you understand all the instructions.  She was sad when GZ didn’t want to try it, but then happily filled out the whole thing for him later on.

  1. Great worksheet! She is creative, and detail oriented!
    My girls design worksheets for my 4 yr old and then can't understand why he isn't interested in trying to do them.

Are Jews an "underrepresented community" in children’s publishing?

I applied for a writing award yesterday. I'm not going to get it, but that's not what I wanted to share with you. Here's what I wanted to share. This box:   I stared at this box for a long, long time. And then I decided not to check it. Even though I believe people like me truly are underrepresented, we probably wouldn’t fit the definition in other people's minds. Why? Well, because we're European. Because we are white. Because as everybody knows, Jews control the media. (do we???) If anything, some people say, Jews are over -represented in publishing. And yet. Some definitions are careful not to include people like me. Like this random definition from the State of California which defines underrepresented for some very specific business purposes as: "an individual who self-identifies as Black, African American, Hispanic, Latino, Asian, Pacific Islander, Native American, Native Hawaiian, or Alaska Native, or who self-identi
