Project-Based Learning and the Hebrew Curriculum - 0 views

Gloria Becker on 24 Jul 14Most Hebrew programs in congregational schools are directed toward language learning rather than language acquisition. In other words, students learn Hebrew as a skill (and often as a prayer skill) rather than for communication. That's a choice education directors make based on the time available, teacher ability, practical needs such as preparing students to become bar or bat mitzvah, and other factors such as the education director's own level of comfort speaking Hebrew or the Rabbi's preference.
