Abstract

Language is an important component in the crystallization of the cultural and national identity of students in Israel, as is evident in the efforts made to introduce Hebrew in schools. In this context, the objective of this article is to review the skills related to how the brain learns to read and write, and reviews the basic methodological approaches for teaching reading and writing; and in a second part, it reviews two commercially available methods for teaching Hebrew literacy in order to define and establish, as a conclusion, their characteristics and the key points of an adequate methodology for teaching modern Hebrew.
