We definitely keep our lessons short (15-20 minutes), do lots of poetry memorization and lots of copywork (usually from whatever readaloud book we're doing at the moment). <br /><br />For Hebrew copywork, we just finished a project of reading through the first perek + a little more of bereishis (all the 7 days of creation). She picked out any word she wanted to from the pasuk and copied it and did a miniature illustration. We'll go through it again, picking out key phrases this time and adding that to a more detailed illustration of each of the days. This is all with the goal of reading that whole section in ivrit, hopefully by May or so be'h.<br /><br />Pirkei Avos is a wonderful idea! I was planning to do a whole series of lessons on that this spring, but maybe we'll start sooner! Those would be perfect for memorization. Very pithy. :)<br /><br />A chabad website has the 12 pesukim that the Chabad rebbe said every child should learn: <br /><br />http://www.torahtots.com/12pesukim/12pesukim.htm<br /><br />(Talk about busy - this website is on steroids!)<br /><br />Gotta run!alpidarkomamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14442064474304918715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21153604.post-74002349636500033462009-12-30T13:43:52.748-05:002009-12-30T13:43:52.748-05:00I just stumbled upon your blog when searching for ...I just stumbled upon your blog when searching for a food processor recipe for challah. I love it! My son is only fifteen months old, but my dh and I have been talking about homeschooling. I like Pirkei Avos too and remember memorizing it in camp. I think it's a great idea for kids. I look forward to reading more.Miriamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18409262703978144368noreply@blogger.com
