While we’re on the subject of Korach…

This is perhaps the first in a series of simplified parsha copywork for even younger kids. Here, the parent reads the passuk with the child, who copies three words from the parsha. There’s also a quick, simple drawing/colouring parsha activity at the bottom of the page. I have tried to provide transliterations of the words so it’s English-language friendly for parents who didn’t have the benefit of Hebrew day school or homeschool parsha copywork!

There are four outlines provided for each word, but just ask the child to do as many or as few as you are both comfortable with. (I usually ask for four because that’s GZ’s age, but in future, I may provide more outlines, because he sometimes likes to surprise me with extras!)

Use any medium you’re comfortable with as well. Pipsqueaks (mini Crayola markers) are useful for writing in these outlines, but crayon is fine as well. Pencil doesn’t work great because there’s not enough contrast, but that said, Gavriel Zev has been insisting on working with pencil lately because a) he thinks it erases (not the way he does it, but that’s another story), and b) that’s what Naomi Rivka uses, most of the time…

NOTE: The first page of this 2-page download is the regular, advanced-level copywork for this parsha, in case you have older kids who’d like to try that.

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
