Building Confidence, One Letter at a Time
At Chabad Tri-Cities Hebrew School, every child is supported in becoming a confident Hebrew reader. Using the AlephBeis™ Kriah Program, students build skills step by step in a way that feels clear, encouraging, and achievable.
A Personal Path to Hebrew Reading
No two children begin in the same place or progress at exactly the same speed. Our teachers work with students individually and in small groups, giving each child the right level of challenge, practice, and encouragement.
Children move forward only when they are ready, helping them develop accuracy without pressure and confidence without comparison.
Recognize
Students become familiar with Hebrew letters and vowels until they can identify them with confidence.
Blend
Children learn how letters and vowels work together, building syllables and decoding unfamiliar words.
Read Fluently
With steady practice, students develop smoother reading, greater independence, and pride in their progress.
The Journey From Alef to Fluency
The AlephBeis™ approach breaks Hebrew reading into manageable stages, allowing students to master one skill before moving to the next.

Age-Appropriate and Level-Appropriate
Our youngest students begin by becoming comfortable with the shapes and sounds of Hebrew letters. Older students build decoding skills, improve accuracy, and work toward fluent, independent reading.
Tools and Support That Help Children Succeed
Clear instruction and regular encouragement are supported by practical tools that make practice engaging and progress easy to recognize.
Every Milestone Matters
Hebrew reading is more than a technical skill. It gives children access to the language of our people, prayer, and Jewish texts! We celebrate every new letter, every successfully read word, and every moment when a child realizes, “I can do this.”
