Kita Alef Hebrew Reading Homework Assignment Schedule
5771 (2010-2011)
WELCOME TO HEBREW LETTERS AND DECODING! HERE ARE A FEW PARENT INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Please help your student get into the routine of practicing Hebrew reading for 5-10 minutes each of these days. You (they) will
be rewarded if you make this effort now.
2. The lessons in this packet correspond to the lessons learned in class using the Shalom U’vrakha Pre-Primer. The assignments
are meant to be a review of material learned in class, and should not be overwhelming or frustrating.
3. Use the assignments provided as a template for your student’s Hebrew practice. If your student cannot complete the
assignment in the 5-10 minutes, that’s OK; have them do as much as they can. The “Zman Likro Ivrit” pages may be difficult
for some students. If your student can only sound out the first line or two that is OK. However, if your student is really
struggling, please let the teacher know! Also, if your student is zipping through, let the teacher know.
4. Your student can turn in completed worksheets to the teacher for up to 3 M&M points each week (1 sticker for doing part of
the week’s assignment, 2 for completing (or trying to complete) all pages, 1 extra for coloring pages).
5. Please note that we do not yet have “keyword” flashcards as mentioned on the lesson pages, only the letter flashcards.
6. If you do not yet know how to read Hebrew, then learning with your student is the perfect opportunity! ENJOY.
