The ability to translate passukim accurately is a skill that eludes many students. The goal of this workshop is to ensure that students will have the ability to translate and understand passukim independently even from the early grades. In order to accomplish this goal, research about the importance of a strong vocabulary, how to acquire it, and its application to limudei kodesh is presented. Participants will leave the workshop with a practical system that is adaptable to various school settings and teaching styles. The workshop addresses the following major points:

The importance of monitoring school-wide vocabulary achievements is explained and statistics about the underachievement of many of our schools in vocabulary acquisition is reported.
The Chumash Vocabulary Test (c) (a new diagnostic tool for Chumash vocabulary acquisition) will be introduced. It will be shown how data from this test can help a school improve it's curriculum.
A practical system (that is implemented during regular Chumash instruction) is described that will enable schools to cover substantially more material with greater understanding during the school year. It will empower students with a large Chumash vocabulary that consists of words, suffixes, and prefixes. The system will engage all the students in a class to look inside the Chumash and it will simultaneously provide maximum instruction to each student on his own level.
