The greatest critique I received from the first year of using your Kriah program is the following: “if my kids made so much progress in one year, why did we wait so long to update our Kriah program to this amazing program?”
We have been using this amazing platform for Hebrew keriah for nearly five years now, and it has truly transformed our teaching experience! The website offers a comprehensive range of assessments that help track students’ progress at every stage. The smart sheets are incredibly effective for tailoring specific content, and the interactive flashcards are a fantastic tool that many of our Rebbes use both for practice and testing. It’s an invaluable resource!
AlephBeis literally has it all. From the moment I started to be in touch with Tova about potentially implementing AlephBeis into our curriculum, she has been the easiest person to work with! And all of my staff who work with the program say the exact same thing! She is responsive, passionate, dedicated, knowledgeable, and [input any positive adjective here]!
From a staff perspective, it is extremely user-friendly, offers the ability to print individual worksheets in an instant, and has pre-fabbed everything — excellent teachers’ guide (literally day-by-day, absolutely NO guesswork), homework books, vacation packets, resource sheets, flashcards, you name it! It is so easy to print out the associated assessments, input the data, analyze the data, and craft a student-specific plan! We have new smart boards in all of the rooms that are implementing the program, and the kids are just so excited to learn kriah every single day!
From a student perspective, the book is clear, the approach has been thoughtfully crafted from years and years of experience, and the homework sheets are colorful and exciting. My own son who is currently in first grade LOVES doing his kriah homework every night!
AlephBeis program is just phenomenal — I would be absolutely shocked if anyone would try AlephBeis and ever want to do something else! Anyone can call me and I would be happy to have a discussion about all the benefits of this program — reach out to Tova for my contact information.
It is with great pleasure that I recommend Mrs. Tova Rottenberg’s ספר הקריאה והקדושה which our teachers at Bais Yaakov of Boro Park have enthusiastically embraced this year. This ספר has not veered from the מסורה of the דקדוקי הקריאה and is arranged in a clear and uncluttered style which appeals to both the Moros and talmidos. The ספר begins with an excellent review of the אלף בית and systematically builds from level to level allowing even the weakest student to master the קריאה with clarity and confidence. Parents have expressed delight in doing homework with their children with great ease. With continued סייעתא דשמיא this ספר will open the gates for our children to reach the ultimate goals of davening and learning בדרך ישראל סבא.
I have used the highly acclaimed program of the הקריאה והקדושה this year in my school. We have had remarkable and amazing results! The program is clear, organized, has a method, and gradually encourages the girls’ fluency and accuracy in their reading. We are extremely pleased with the program — 26 girls reading expertly and fluently. In addition, the excellent assessments at the end of each unit have proven to be extremely helpful in pinpointing the students’ weaknesses. A few students — whose problems would not have been easily detected — were picked up due to this innovative and accurate portrayal of the girls’ reading skills. I found them to be invaluable to us in assessing the students.
I highly recommend this program. Wishing you continued הצלחה!
As a second grade Morah this year, I am teaching the grade that started in Pre1 with your program — and I am LOVING how they are so acclimated to a Kria program, know the routine and have such a strong grounding in skills.
I am so thrilled that our school has a Mehalach for Kria that is consistent through the grades with no “reinventing the wheel” every year. Thank you so much!
