New Book Focuses On
The Blessing Of Learning
SUSAN GRANT
Staff Writer
W
ith the help of a new
book by Temple
Israel's Rabbi Paul
Michael Yedwab, learning
Hebrew is as easy as saying
a blessing.
Rabbi Yedwab, with the
backing of the Union of
American Hebrew Con-
gregations, recently
published The Alef-Bet of
Blessing, a primer designed
to teach Hebrew as well as
the basic concepts of
Judaism.
The Ale f-Bet of Blessing is
part of a new UAHC Hebrew
school curriculum. It will in-
clude a workbook and
teachers' manual for better
instruction.
A few years ago, the
UAHC Hebrew Task Force
Curriculum Project decided
it needed a uniform cur-
riculum, Rabbi Yedwab said_
Rabbi Bernard Mehlman
and Rabbi Howard Bogot,
who originally worked on
the project, asked Rabbi
Yedwab, who was studying
at the seminary at the time,
to write a primer that would
introduce the letters and be
self-reenforcing.
He spent last summer
writing and editing The
Alef-Bet of Blessing, which
was published in December.
Rabbi Yedwab hopes
children who see the bright
green cover featuring a
friendly looking lion grabb-
ing the letters clef and bet in
his paws will want to use the
primer. Yet, it is also
designed for adults who
want to learn Hebrew bless-
ings, he said.
Rabbi Yedwab wanted to
make the book as attractive
as possible so both children
and adults want to use it.
But more important, he said,
he wanted to make The Al*
Bet of Blessing easy to use so
students of all ages are en-
couraged to learn.
While other primers begin
by teaching the first letter of
the alef-bet, students using
Rabbi Yedwab's book start
by learning the second
letter, bet. Seven pages and
three letters later, students
can read their first Hebrew
word — baruch, bless.
By the end of the primer,
students learn the blessings
over fruit and bread, as well
as Shabbat and Chanukah
candles. They also learn
blessings said when hanging
a mezuzah, hearing good
news or seeing a rainbow.
Using blessings to teach
Hebrew gives the student
"the immediate gratification
of learning a Jewish word,"
Rabbi Yedwab said.
Most people get frustrated
if they don't learn something
quickly, he said. Blessings
are easy to learn and can be
used in everyday Jewish life.
By learning a word they
can use both at home and at
the synagogue, they are en-
couraged to continue study-
ing, Rabbi Yedwab said.
"Immediately upon learn-
ing the language you learn
the basic blessings of our
people," he said. Students
"will know the key concepts
involved with Judaism."
In addition to offering
lessons for students, The
Alef-Bet of Blessing has some
built-in fun, Rabbi Yedwab
said.
He envisions teachers br-
inging in a loaf of bread or
pieces of fruit, asking the
students to say the proper
blessing and having a party
as a reward for their learn-
ing.
"A blessing is a celebra-
tion," he said.
When students learn the
basic Jewish blessings, they
can go onto the next book in
the series, A Bridge to
Prayer.
"After learning the bless-
ings they can learn the
prayers," Rabbi Yedwab
said. "I want them to get the
feeling that if they can read
the blessings they can read
anything.'"
"I want this book to help
them see the world through
Jewish eyes." 0
