I've found that the best software are the ones that go along with the text books that the students are using in class. Behrman House (http://www.behrmanhouse.com/) has several as well as the Tal-Am curriculum (http://www.talam.org/ariot.html). I've found that individual software programs from vendors like Davka are not that helpful because they do not correspond with, or complement or reinforce, the classroom curriculum.

The religious school classes meet on Sunday mornings and Wednesday afternoons, and I suspect the ability to use the resource from home would also be desired. Classes range from kindergarten through seventh grade, but I believe that actually teaching Hebrew starts around third or fourth grade. Is there something that would be recommended? This is outside of our collection area, so I can't really make a recommendation. Thanks, Laurel Laurel S.
