[H & R Shubert <notfranz...>]

This is a terrific site and I have recommended it to my friends who are 
starting out learning Hebrew and also to the Hebrew teachers at our temple 
school.

  Friedman made a plea in a session at HN ... that those who do not read 
Hebrew, learn.  I was just sent this amazing site for learning Hebrew ... it is 
unbelievable ... interactive ... brilliant graphics ... midrashim ... fun!

   

  for yourself ... for others who might need it ... for your students

  Starting with Aleph: An On-line Course in Hebrew Reading and Jewish

  Values

  http://www.ejemm.com/aleph/index.html

   

   

  This new Website, posted by JeMM, an online multimedia developer

  providing Jewish content, presents "a free on-line course for adults

  in Hebrew reading and Jewish values." Currently, four lessons are

  posted that offer instruction in the basics of the Hebrew alphabet.

  Each lesson also features a portion of the midrash commenting upon

  the relationship of individual letters of the alphabet to Hebrew

  beliefs concerning creation, time, place, and the universe. The

  instructional materials help visitors to practice letters, sounds,

  and words as well as featuring interactive exercises to test one's

  learning. The midrash are presented with animated graphics and audio.

  Lessons five through seven are in development and will be posted

  soon.
