Reading:
- Practice a quick repetition on the reading subjects: This section continues to establish and to fortify the subject of reading more difficult material, on a higher level and are based what was learned in previous years.
–Repeating the Tnuot Gedolot and Ketanot: to refine the distinction between Tnout Gedolot and Ketanot especially when the rule applies of Shva Na- Shva after a Tenua Gedola (p.12-13).
–The Shva: In this chapter a repetition is being done of all the rules of the Shva and the distinction between Shva Na and Shva Nach, with the goal to achieve perfect reading skills (p.14-17).
–To repeat subjects which need strengthening: to reach a deep internalization of the learned subjects and to avoid errors in its practical application. The chapter repeats in short the following subjects: Kametz Katan, Degashim (letters with an accent), the Chatafim (), the Mapik – dot in the letter Hei at the end of a word , Patacgh Gnuva (when the last letter of a word ends with Ain Chet Hei with Patach), Imot Hakria (א ה ו י and the reading of complex words inside a text) (p.18-36).
- Reading without Nikud (punctuation): This chapter focuses on reading without Nikud as taught in the previous year, with the goal to help the children according to an already learned model how to recognize visual signs in a word (p.37-50).
- Writing in Rashis script: in this chapter a quick review is being done in Rashis script which also has been taught in the previous year. The chapter quickly repeats the identification and writing of Rashi, to make distinction between similar letters and to practice how to read (p.51-60).
Writing:
- How do we write correctly? In this chapter different writing rules are being addressed from different aspects:
-Basic rules for a correct writing and rules on how to stay in the lines and in the notebook while at the same time a legible handwriting is being kept with a pleasant order to the eye (p.61-68).
-A special technique to copy from the blackboard and to write while listening for letters which get confused (same sound but they are different letters), to avoid mistakes in spelling. It has been proven that this method is especially effective and that mistakes in orthography got significally diminished in the children (69-86).
Language:
All what has been put together in “Sharsheret Hasafa Dalet”. The learned is being divided into three parts:
- Vocabulary: exercises to repeat the vocabulary which has been taught the previous year and organized lists with this year’s vocabulary (the exercises of this year can be found in the book “Sharsheret Hasafa Dalet”(p.89-100).
- Drafting and oral expression: exercises to practice the composition of sentences and which combine the vocabulary of this year with the grammatical themes which are shown in the book “Sharsheret Hasafa Dalet” (p.101-116).
- The traffic light method: repetition and practice only for comprehension which is based on underlying the words which are known already and a way to learn new words (p.117-135
