Are you the parent of a preschooler who wants to give your
son/daughter the priceless Hebrew language skills that are so important to
success in school (just think of how much better kids from Eretz Yisroel who
speak Ivrit do in Chumash and Navi)?
Do you have a child who is floundering in Limudei
Kodesh (Judaic Studies) because he/she just can't seem to get his/her
hands around the Hebrew language?
Are you a chozer b'teshuvah who would love
to be more fluent in Lashon Kodesh/Chumash or a frum-from-birth adult
who learned by rote in your formative years and are still unable to
read/understand Hebrew language text?
Are you involved in the leadership of a cheder or day
school and would love to upgrade the quality of instruction in Limudei Kodesh by
introducing cutting-edge curricular materials that will attract and retain the
attention of today's hyper-stimulated school kids?
If any of the above (or all of the above) applies to you,
please have a look at the just-released Volume II of our skills-based Bright Beginnings Chumash workbook.
In order to better understand the educational philosophy
that drove the creation of these workbooks, kindly click here for the Bright Beginnings home page. There you
will find a10-minute video, an 11-page sample of the original workbook, and links
to articles extolling the value of skills-based learning.
Please have a careful look at this 5-page sample of the Bright Beginnings Chumashto see the exciting
"upgrades" this workbook contains:
1) Page 1 contains a demo of
an adorable "Shoreshland" game which is designed to review the skills
acquired in the first workbook.
2) Page 2 is a translation
sheet which has red stars next to the words/shorashim covered in the first
book. These stars which appear next to an incredibly large percentage of the
workbook will give the learners a great deal of self-confidence as they realize
how many words they can translate and understand on their own.
3) Pages 3-5 show worksheets
with enhanced graphics that will have children (and adults) turning the pages
with interest.
With this second workbook completed, you are now provided
with curricular material covering all of Parshas Lech Lecha and the
learner will gaYeshiva Darchei Noam and Project YESin mastery of 54 key shorashim (root words).
The second volume is priced at $20.00 for individual books
and $17.00 for group sales of 10 or more workbooks. (Volume one is $18.00 for
individuals and $15.00 for groups.) We are also offering both workbooks for
$35.00 and $30.00 for group sales.)
As the director of Project YES for the past 16 years, I have
fielded countless phone calls from broken-hearted parents whose frustrated
children never "got" Chumash, and tried to convey the pain of kids
who never acquired Hebrew language skills in these articles: It Doesn't Start in Tenth Grade, Training Wheels, and Exit Interviews.
We created this workbook series to help children avoid this
heartache by acquiring the skills to succeed and thrive in Chumash and all
their Limudim.
Please drop us a line at bbchumash@gmail.com with any questions you may have or
to order the workbook(s). If you are involved with a school that is represented
at the Torah Umesorah Convention this weekend, please note that I will be there
from Thursday afternoon through Motzoei Shabbos and I will be glad to review
samples of the workbooks with the delegates from your school and answer any
questions they may have.
