Tal Am - Hebrew Curriculum

February 23, 2007

Hebrew Curriculum

There are two programs that are heavily utilized in the United States and the diaspora for Hebrew instruction.  Tal Am is one, the other is Neta.  The Tal Am web site is here: http://www.talam.org/

The program is geared to grades 1st-6th.   

Neta - Hebrew Curriculum/Training for Teachers

There are two programs that are heavily used in the United States and the diaspora for Hebrew.  One is Neta and the other is Tel Am.  The Neta site is located at: http://www.netahebrew.org/index.htm

I don’t know much about this program, but the home page says its tailored to grades 7-12.  The program was created by Hebrew University in Jerusalem. 

Yutopia Blog - Guitar chords for Israeli Music

I ran across this treasure recently.  This Rabbi is creating a list of israeli songs with guitar chords.  Its simple and beautiful.  http://yutopia.yucs.org/chords/fulllist.php

While its by no means exhaustive, they have a ton of songs (over 250 as of this post) and it seems to  be growing.  Enjoy. 

Hebrew Songs.com -

This site is an unbelievable resource of hebrew songs - some 4000 or more.  http://www.hebrewsongs.com/search.asp

The site offers in most cases both transliterations as well as hebrew words for the song.  You have to scroll through an alphabetical listing, but its pretty easy to navigate and the information is great.
