Book Description

July 1, 1986 8 and up3 and up
Being Torah brings students into Torah by inviting them to become biblical commentators. The book works with words. Based on a real translation of the biblical text that was crafted specifically for 3rd to 5th graders, students are drawn into the words of Torah. Using colored clues, they focus on the number of times given words are used in a story, the changes between what one person says and what another person says that first said, and into the parallel words that link one story to another. This is not a book about Torah. It is actual Torah study made accessible and age appropriate. We took the original book and made it more beautiful and easier to teach. Take a look. Take another look.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best textbook I've ever used, November 18, 2007
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Being Torah (Paperback)
I've been using this book in third grade Jewish religious school for years now. Every year, students ask me if their parents can buy this book for them, or if they can take the book home. This has never happened to me with any other textbook! The stories are very close to the Biblical text; the commentaries of the children in the book are thoughtful; and the Wordplay and "A Close Look" sections get kids very interested in Torah study. I can't recommend this book highly enough.
