This is an example of how I played the game today with a student:

You can print this or play it using Zoom!

Eli: Mom, can we find a kosher restaurant?

Mom: I'm sure we can. We are in New York City!

Abba: I looked up a few when were back in Jerusalem, ah, here is my list. I printed it!

Mom: Which restaurant is nearest?

Abba: Here's one, oh, it is open on Saturdays, we shouldn't go there, I doubt it is Kosher!

Eli: Yeah, in Jerusalem a restaurant that is open on Shabbat wouldn't get a Kosher certificate, even if they used only Kosher foods! It's the principle of being Kosher!

Emma: What about that delicatessen over there? It looks good!

Eli: Oh, is there a Hecher in the window?

Emma: Eli, come with me and we'll go check.

Mom: If we can't find a kosher restaurant, we can go to a supermarket and buy fruits and vegetables and I will cook us a nice vegetarian dinner at the bed and breakfast apartment.

Abba: But I wanted to take everyone out for a nice meal. Here Emma comes now!

Emma: I looked and went inside, and they said that they are Kosher style, They don't have the certificated yet, they applied and it will take time until they get it.

Eli: So we need to keep looking.

Mom: Look! The Best Falafel in New York City! And it's Kosher! https://moshesfalafel.net/

Emma: That is just like the falafel that we can get in Jerusalem!

Abba: I was hoping for something a bit more fancy, but the price is right. Let's go there!

Mom: Your treat Abba! Come on, let's go eat felafel!

Questions:

Where is the family?

What have they been doing all day?

Where did they go?

What restaurant did they find first?

What did they find second?

Mom: Emma is allergic to penicillin. She broke out in hives last year when she took it for laryngitis.

Doctor: In that case she will need a different antibioitic. Hmm,Antibotics to use instead of penicillin Erythromycin looks like it will take care of that throat infection.

Mom: Can she go to school?

Doctor, No, she needs to stay home for three days, I'm writing a sick slip that you can send to the schoool by email. You can buy the antibiotic at any pharmacy. Drink lots of hot tea, and soup.

Get plenty of rest.

כן, עשיתי הכל במחשב הביתי שלי. אני לא אוהב לשלם לאנשים שיעשו דברים שאני יכולה לעשות בעצמי.

אני מחפשת את הגבר המיוחד שאוכל לתת ולקבל, לפרק הבא בחיי.

כן, אני  , מתעניינת בדברים רבים ושונים, היסטוריה, ארכיאולוגיה, טיולי טבע, מדע בדיוני, אני יכולה לבשל היטב, אבל אין לי זמן עכשיו כי אני צריכה לפרנס את משק הבית בעצמי.

I see Sam Series of Phonics books. Review

2023-04-16T14:20:00.004+03:00

In addition to my own series of lessons, I also often look at what else is offered on line.

Today I found the I see Sam series !

https://iseesam.com/reading-for-all-learners-home-education-and-send-home-digital-edition/

You can go to the link and teach on line from the color deluxe edition! Now they are charging a per month subscription to the series. It might be worth it for a month or two depending on how much you can get your child to read.

One thing very interesting is that they don't teach the alphabet in order, and start right away to actually read.

It is very important to read the instructor's book, and then teach the student to read a difficult word both ways, The slow way, "aaaaannnnnnnddddd" and the fast way "and." They also recommond for the student to read each book twice and if there were still mistakes the second time, to even read it again!

I will use this series as well in addition to all the other resources that I use in my on-line beginning reading lessons.

If your student needs to have an actual book, they are a bit expensive, so I would get the set on colored paper and not buy the colored edition.

Thanks!

Print out this page, write your own sentence after the example sentences. If there is a question, you can answer the question! Sometimes the same word is being used many time. This is a way that you will remember it even better!

Lesson 9 The letter R r , Funny Phonics

2022-12-20T17:02:00.004+02:00

Today we are learning the letter R r

In English the letter r is not considered a throat letter! Show how to write the letter R r in print either in a notebook, or on a whiteboard in Zoom.

Basic Lesson Plan to use with all the lessons in this series:

Step 1

Teach the new letters.

Since we are online, ask the student to get a blank notebook, and draw the letter after you.

Then say the sound of the letter, and what letter in the student's Native language. You can have the student draw the letter in the air after you do it.

Explain the difference between vowels and consonants, the a e i letters are vowels, and the rest are consonants. Each syllable in English needs a vowel and a consonant.

Step 2 Find a word together that starts with the sound that the student might know.

Ask the student to draw the picture of the word, along with the letter in English in the notebook.

Do this for all the new letters.

Step 3. Go over the new vocabulary.

I will give a vocabulary list in a number of languages to make it easier for teachers to teach to many students.

Aske the student to draw a picture of each word in their notebook, along with the word in English.

Step 4 Read the story with the student. I encourage the student to read the story alone, and then afterwards I read it again with the student.

Step 5 Ask the questions about the story: In the beginning, I use the student's native language,and accept that the student will answer in the native language. Later on as the student knows more English I will ask the questions in English and expect the answer in English.

Step 6. If you can you can try to play a game with the student, you can use the templates on this link to write up games. https://www.teachenglishliteracy.org/copy-of-pages-for-learners Eventually these posts will be collected and will be available on Amazon as a book for English teachers to order as a hardcopy resource. But you can use them now for free!

Funny Phonics Lesson 8 The letter B b

2022-12-18T11:20:00.046+02:00

The traditonal way to teach the alphabet in English is to teach all the letters in order. I have done this as well, but it is not the best way to have the student understand meaning. This is why with the Hickey Method, which my Funny Phonics is based upon, doesn't start with the letter A. We use i t p n s because we can get the student reading and learning real words right away. I have written these little stories to practices these words over and over again.

Pedagogically, a person can remember new material if they encounter it 7 times. So that is why we use games to increase the amount of times the student will encounter the word, and hopefully in a fun way.

Today we are learning the letter B b In the story, it is used both as a capital B and lowercase b.

Lesson 7
English	Spanish	French	Hebrew	Ukrainian	Russian
Ben	Ben - un nombre de niño	Ben - un prénom masculin	בן - שם בנים	Бен - ім'я хлопчика	Бен - имя мальчика

hit	pegar	frapper	מכה	бити	удариться
bin	la papelera	poubelle	פח אשפה	смітник	Урна для мусора

Questions:

Who has a bat?

Who bit the bat?

What did Ben do with the bat?

What happened to the bat?

Basic Lesson Plan to use with all the lessons in this series:

Step 1

Teach the new letters.

Since we are online, ask the student to get a blank notebook, and draw the letter after you.

Then say the sound of the letter, and what letter in the student's Native language. You can have the student draw the letter in the air after you do it.

Explain the difference between vowels and consonants, the a e i letters are vowels, and the rest are consonants. Each syllable in English needs a vowel and a consonant.

Step 2 Find a word together that starts with the sound that the student might know.

Ask the student to draw the picture of the word, along with the letter in English in the notebook.

Do this for all the new letters.

Step 3. Go over the new vocabulary.

I will give a vocabulary list in a number of languages to make it easier for teachers to teach to many students.

Aske the student to draw a picture of each word in their notebook, along with the word in English.

Step 4 Read the story with the student. I encourage the student to read the story alone, and then afterwards I read it again with the student.
