Also, with teaching siddur based Hebrew, students need the opportunity to practice it in real settings, such as an in class tefillah service. Also, it is important for students to practice at home with parents. So, I might provide transliteration of prayers or have parents use an on line program for the prayers, assuming they are not Hebrew readers.
