Does CHAI have a Hebrew component? How does it teach Hebrew or reinforce what we’re teaching in our Hebrew program?
The CHAI curriculum does not teach Hebrew reading; it provides the context for Hebrew learning. CHAI allows students to experience the Hebrew content they have learned. Themes of prayers are investigated. Key Hebrew terms are introduced and reinforced in the lessons. You can keep a running list of these terms in your classroom. Parents, teachers and students can practice their pronunciation of all the Hebrew terms in CHAI using our online dictionary. The URJ also offers a self-guided Hebrew program, Mitkadem, for use in Reform religious schools.
