How We Support Teachers

We support high school English teachers by providing clear guidance for the Bagrut, intervention plans for struggling learners, and tools that help students progress through the bands and improve their language skills. Our resources include teaching materials, professional learning communities, assessment support, and meetings where teachers can share ideas and grow together — so no one teaches alone.

Multi- Sensory Reading - Books as Objects 

Implemented and Led by: Charmain Lezmy, Yitzhak Rabin Branco-Weiss HS, Mazkeret Batya

Inspired by Leah Price, Professor of English Literature, Harvard University, USA

Blindfolded students explored and identified various books and objects using only

touch and smell. Students made insightful guesses, linking texture and scent to

meaning, which sparked discussion about how physical attributes of books convey

deeper messages. The class found the activity engaging and thought-provoking,

particularly the challenge of identifying objects without sight and the idea that books can be "felt" as much as read.
