Programs

  • Program 1 [2020]

    This past year, we continued servicing children in individualized groups at either their school location or at a private learning center away from their school. They received support in their academic studies using skill based learning. These children were children who have experienced academic failure and have some kind of learning or behavioral weakness. For children previously at-risk, their gain in academic skill level and taste of school success has greatly impacted their overall self confidence and self esteem. These children have been able to succeed in the mainstream setting with support, sometimes exceeding their peers. We have put emphasis on working with many of the same students for multiple years which has allowed a greater effect on each child and also furthered longitudinal research to develop effective methods and materials.

  • Program 2 [2020]

    In August 2015, the organization began publishing the curriculum and promoting it to schools and parents in the wider community. This included a Hebrew reading curriculum and Hebrew Bible Curriculum. The Hebrew reading curriculum is highly graphical, engaging and hands on and textbooks on other Hebrew subjects including Bible and Hebrew language. The Hebrew reading curriculum gives parents and schools the option of remediating reading disabilities using a DIY series of workbooks that have all the professional techniques that specialists use laid out in fun filled exercises with clear instructions. This has proven to be highly effective and spares the parents the need to spend thousands of dollars on remedial programs. Remedial tutors also like using it as it makes their work more effective. The Hebrew Bible curriculum is designed in such a way that the content and architecture of the curriculum allows schools to promote inclusion in their mainstream classroom, as the materials cleverly engage the weakest while simultaneously stimulating and challenging the brightest. So far 5 volumes have been produced and 2 of them translated into Yiddish. The 6th volume is in the making with 50% of it completed and not yet finished. We have just completed a new Talmud curriculum for the Jewish community. The first volume is a visual introduction to the Talmud. The next volumes is an actual chapter of the Talmud (Tractate Berochos Chapter 4). This is an illustrative and engaging version of the Talmud. We are working on creating other chapters. The material is the selected parts that are typically taught in Jewis Day Schools.

  • Academic Support for At-Risk Children

    This past year, we continued servicing children in individualized groups at either their school location or at a private learning center away from their school. They received support in their academic studies using skill based learning. These children were children who have experienced academic failure and have some kind of learning or behavioral weakness. For children previously at-risk, their gain in academic skill level and taste of school success has greatly impacted their overall self confidence and self esteem. These children have been able to succeed in the mainstream setting with support, sometimes exceeding their peers. We work with our studentsfor multiple years to carry them through their schooling. This past year we continued with some old students and took a couple of new students.
