Hebrew Slides for English Speakers: Show #1 - Sephardi (Distance Learning)

Students will enjoy these self-checking, digital flashcards, year-round (fall, winter, spring, or summer) whether as a center, a whole class, or for tutoring, as they learn the alphabet (aleph bet, alef beis, or aleph bais). These digital flashcards are engaging, effective, and fun!! There is deliberate, built-in wait time followed by immediate feedback, so that students know if they were correct.

Gamification of curriculum promotes faster learning and better memory retention.

Check out the PREVIEW video by clicking on the little thumbnail image that has a PLAY arrow on it. Make sure you can see the Hebrew letter names at the bottom of the slide and volume is turned on.

Hebrew Letters For English Speakers is a phonetic and pictorial, digital flash cards, alphabet slide show series for a whole class or center activity and is amazing for your Hebrew instruction, even with distance learning. This is a paperless, self-running, self-checking, visual, musical, engaging, "digital flashcard" program. You will complete each slide activity in as little as 5 minutes or as much as 30 minutes of class time.

• NOTE- Make sure you have PowerPoint software on which to play the presentation.

• NOTE- Aleph and Ayin are presented as silent letters because only their vowels make sounds. If you really feel strongly that you want a picture on the aleph or ayin slide, just drop your own clip art or photograph onto the slide. It's that easy!

• Buyers can change the letter name spelling and slide speed with PowerPoint controls.

This is Slide Show #1 out of 4.

Slide Show #1 is for introducing letters to beginners, using the Modern Sephardi letter names like aleph, bet, vet, gimmel, dalet, hay, vav, zayin, chet, tet, etc... Slide Show #1 presents each Hebrew letter on its own slide with one phonetic picture clue.

My slide presentations of Hebrew letters are easier for English speakers, because other programs present unfamiliar Hebrew words, not English words with the letters. So, a lion is often shown with the letter aleph, and a camel is shown for gimmel. In my slide show series, though, the pictures make sense to English speakers:

• banana start with bet
• veterinarian starts with vet
• gate starts with gimmel

And guess what? My English picture words are actually Hebrew picture words, too, that are correctly assigned to the correct aleph bet letter and slide!

Students have a few moments to guess or say the name of the letter on the screen before the correct answer appears, giving instant feedback! Educational researchers say this is very motivating for kids, and the reason they are drawn to video games. Simulate that feedback with these presentations.

** Great for distance learning! Share your screen with your students or place in Google Classroom. (Zoom sharing Instructions here- https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362153-How-Do-I-Share-My-Screen-)
